Abstract

The invention relates to a method for extracting microalgal oil by supercritical CO2 isothermal transformation technology. The method comprises the steps of: removing impurities in dried microalgae, and then crushing and grinding; putting the ground microalgae dry powder into an extraction kettle, filling supercritical CO2 into the extraction kettle, and extracting under the conditions that the pressure is 12-25MPa, the temperature is 34-42 DEG C and the time is 150-180min; carrying out isothermal decompression separation on the supercritical CO2 containing solute successively by two stages of separators; and collecting fatty acid oil extract separated out from the bottoms of the two stages of separators to obtain the product. According to the method, organic solvent is not needed in the whole process, so that no residual solvent exits in the extract, and oxidation and thermal cracking are not caused in the extraction process; the oil is high in yield and purity; the product is excellent in quality; the whole set of technology is simple in operation and does not have corresponding post-processing requirement. Meanwhile, the method prevents the microalgal oil from poisoning the human body and polluting the environment in the extracting process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the extraction of fatty acid oil from microalgae, in particular to a method using supercritical CO 2 A method for extracting oil from microalgae by isothermal pressure swing technology. Background technique [0002] With the development of the global economy and population growth, the relationship between oil and human beings is getting closer and closer. Whether it is used as a raw material for biodiesel or processed into health food, oil plays a vital role. At present, the main source of oil is still plant and animal fat, but this traditional oil source can no longer fully meet the various needs of people's food, industry and other life. However, many microalgae have extremely high oil content. According to conservative estimates, microalgae can produce 30,000-50,000L of oil per hectare per year, while oil-rich plants, such as palms and jatropha, can only produce 1300-2400L of oil per hectare per year. [0003] Microalgae h...
