Pressurized Gas eXpanded (PGX) liquid drying of sodium alginate and its loading with coenzyme Q10 by adsorptive precipitation
DownloadFall 2019
Pressurized Gas eXpanded (PGX) liquid technology is a particle formation technique based on the use of carbon dioxide (CO2) and ethanol as the drying fluid. This technology uses an anti-solvent method to precipitate water-soluble biopolymers from aqueous solution and produces micro- or nano-sized...

Pressurized Hot Water Hydrolysis of Shrimp Shell and Chicken Feet for Value-added Compounds Production
DownloadSpring 2023
The interest in the valorization of animal by-products such as shrimp shell and chicken feet has been growing as a sustainable approach to produce valuable biopolymers such as chitosan and collagen, that is also in line with the sustainability concept. These biopolymers could find applications in...
