1. An extraction apparatus, comprising
an extraction vessel
configured to
receive a process fluid,permit the process fluid to come into contact with a source material within the extraction vessel,permit an extracted material to be removed from the source material, andpermit the extracted material and the process fluid to form a mixture,the extraction vessel including extraction vessel filter
adapted to retain portions of the source material while also allowing the mixture to pass; a separation chamber; a process fluid circulation conduit
configured to
selectively restrict, allow, and reversibly direct flow of the process fluid into and out of the extraction vessel andpermit the mixture to flow from the extraction vessel to the separation chamber,the process fluid circulation conduit including a separation portion configured to
receive the mixture andpermit a portion of the extracted material to separate from the mixture within the separation chamber; a temperature regulator
including
a temperature regulation fluid anda temperature regulation fluid circulation line,the temperature regulator configured to
permit re-circulation of the temperature regulation fluid and regulate the temperature of the process fluid; and a back pressure regulator configured to
maintain pressure within the separation chamber and vent the process fluid. |
