Star Anise scfe co2 is extracted from dried Star anise fruits. The biological name of star anise is Illicium verum H. The extraction happens with the liquid CO2 and when compared to the conventional steam distillation method the extraction with CO2 yields 9.8% more essential oil. The liquid obtained through this extraction is energy saving, product yielding and better quality product. There are no solvent residues, no inorganic salts, no heavy metals and no reproducible microorganisms. The star anise scfe co2 contains essential oil, trans anethole, traces of limonene, linalool, pinene and chavicol.
