Summary:The aim of this work is to model the kinetics of the supercritical CO2 extraction of oils from biomass, namely from industrial grape seeds and chia seeds. A model introduced by Sovova and Stateva (2015) is used and solved using gPROMS ModelBuider. The supercritical extraction experiments performed at different temperature, pressure and flow rate conditions, provide the data to the modelling studies and for model parameter estimation, using gPROMS parameter estimation. The partition coefficient and the maximum oil content corresponding to monolayer adsorption was estimated and the absolute average relative deviation between the experimentally measured and simulated extraction curves for the cases examined is within the range (1-9) %, which may be considered as a good agreement taking into consideration the very complex nature of the systems under study.
