Written by Ana Khanlari, PhD | Jul 28, 2026, 7:47:10 PM

What the case study covers:

  • Using supercritical CO₂ extraction to evaluate phenol-removal strategies for industrial wastewater. 
  • Modeling extraction, separation, distillation, and CO₂ recycle systems within a single process simulation. 
  • Applying the PSRK thermodynamic model to study phase behavior under supercritical operating conditions. 
  • Generating process and equipment data to support treatment-plant design and evaluation.
