THE EFFECT OF SYSTEM TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE ON THE FLUID-DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR OF THE SUPERCRITICAL ANTISOLVENT MICRONIZATION PROCESS: A NUMERICAL APPROACH

Abstract The Supercritical Antisolvent (SAS) technique allows for the precipitation of drugs and biopolymers in nanometer size in a wide range of industrial applications, while guaranteeing the physical and chemical integrity of such materials. However, a suitable combination of operating parameters...
