Supercritical CO2 extraction of cumbaru oil (Dipteryx alata Vogel) assisted by ultrasound: Global yield, kinetics and fatty acid composition

- The best operating condition of SFE in terms of global yield was 35 MPa and 40 °C.
- Mathematic models represented the experimental data with a maximum error of 8.78%.
- Different experimental conditions did not change the fatty acids composition.
- The oil presented elevated concentration of oleic (∼49%) and linoleic (∼26%) acids.
- Fatty acid profile was not affected by variations in SFE and SFE + US conditions.
