Effect of process variables in supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of tocotrienols from hydrolyzed palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD)

The recovery of tocotrienols from palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD), a by-product of palm oil, is of economic and environmental interest. In this study tocotrienols were extracted from PFAD using supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) at different temperatures (40–60°C) and pressures (20–40 MPa). The...
