Application Of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide In The Leather Industry

In numerous processes and synthesis, supercritical carbon oxide can be used as a nontoxic and green solvent. This chapter described the supercritical carbon dioxide and its application in the leather industry to develop an eco-friendly technology. Supercritical carbon dioxide has several unique properties and has great potential for advanced processing of materials. Supercritical carbon dioxide as a potential solvent for leather processing hopes to reduce environmental burden by avoiding the parallel pollutions by leather processing.
