Abstract
Supercritical fluids are of very much importance in the modern chemical technology among other extraction methods which are being used at preparative and analytical scale. The technique has potential to be used in variety of fields. An important aspect of supercritical fluids is that they are considered as the green technology and thus they are environmental friendly method for extraction. The Green extraction methods are the processes which helps in reducing energy consumption, further it allows the use of renewable natural substances, and alternative solvents. It also provides a secure high-quality product. They are mostly used in chemical industries as they provide excellent results because of their unique properties. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is among the most widely used supercritical fluids (SCF). The article covers about SFE method and its application in the field of fisheries.
