Three distinct processes were experimentally studied a coupled process for deacidi%ing and enriching the plqrtosterol content of rice bran oil (RBO) by continuous countercurrent colnitmar fiactionation, a scale up of a coupled supercritical fluid extraction (SFE)/ supercritical fluid chromatogr hy (SFC) process for the enrichment of phytosterol in com bran oil, and a unit process involving the snbcritical water extraction of berry substrates. The e q)erimental aspects of the first two processes are described in the literature (36, 37), and will not be repeated here. Research is currently underw to couple the described process below with other unit processes involving both subcritical water and siq)ercritical carbon dioxide.
