Abstract: The disclosed methods for preparing and isolating carboxylic esters ensure a high product purity and minimize technical complexity. These methods are based on the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol in an aqueous medium. In some examples, the alcohol is used both for the esterification and for the precipitation of the salts, preferably ammonium salts, formed in the synthesis.

Abstract: A process for the purification of carboxylic acid having a chain length from one to five carbon atoms is disclosed herein. The process includes transforming the carboxylic acid to its monoester and/or its diester, and processing the mono- and/or the diester of the carboxylic acid by subcritical or supercritical fluid chromatography using a subcritical or supercritical mobile phase.

Abstract: In a method for extracting products of value from animal or vegetable starting material, a solution is to be created, with which extraction is improved, with regard to both the yield and separation of natural products to be extracted, and management of the method. This is achieved in that soluble constituents are extracted from the starting material in a first extraction step, using CO2, and subsequently, in a second extraction step, other constituents are extracted with compressed hydrocarbons.
