Hydrocarbon Solvent Comparison Index: A way of predicting the performance differences between different hydrocarbon solvents
Hydrocarbon Solvent Comparison Index: A way of predicting the performance differences between different hydrocarbon solvents
We have developed a unique tool to quantify and predict solvent performance based on two indices – Solvent Power and Degassibility – that are derived from known physical and chemical properties. Solvent properties are shown vary in a predictable and understandable manner. The tool allows extractors to make more informed decisions about solvent use and optimize solvent composition to process specific biomass, make specific products, and realize desired yield and product quality.
