In a method for enriching valuable substances, in particular phytochemicals, such as polyphenols, colorants, antioxidants and similar, from a liquid raw material, such as lipids, fermentation broths or solvent extracts, the raw material is mixed in a mixing device (5) with a compressed extraction agent, in particular CO2, from a storage container (1), whereupon the mixture is fed to a pre-concentrate separator (13) and the more highly soluble components in the extraction agent are separated from the undissolved components. The charged extraction agent is extracted from the pre-concentrate separator (13) and the undissolved components remain as a pre-concentrate, wherein the charged extraction agent is guided via a separation system, in which the dissolved substances are separated from the charged extraction agent, wherein the purified extraction agent is returned to the storage container (1). |
