`
`(54) METHOD FOR EXTRACTING AND SEPARATING COLORING MATTER FROM KRILL
`
`(57)Abstract:
`
`PURPOSE: To prepare a reddish orange coloring matter
`
`having a high safety in a high concn. by extracting, with
`
`CO2 in a supercritical state, krill shells of which the
`
`protein has been decomposed by a protease.
`
`CONSTITUTION: Krill shells are treated with a protease
`
`to decompose the protein in the shells and the treatment
`
`product is filtered. The residue of filtration is dried to give
`
`treated shells having a water content of 6—8% and a
`
`mean particle size of 200 pm or lower. The treated shells
`
`are put into an extraction vessel 5. An extractant
`
`comprising a liq. CO2 in an amt. of 30-40 pts.wt. based
`
`on one pt.wt. treated shells having a coloring matter
`
`concn. of 30 mg/100 g is supplied through a
`
`supercooling apparatus 2 to a pump 3, pressurized at
`
`
`
`the pump 3 to 100-250 kg/cm2, heated with a heat exchanger 4 to 35-40°C to bring it into a
`
`supercritical state, and transferred to the extraction vessel 5 to extract an oil in the treated
`
`shells. After the pressure of the oil-contg. 002 in the supercritical state is reduced to 40-60

`
`kg/cm2 with a pressure reducing valve 6, the CO2 is delivered through a selector valve 11 to
`
`the first separating vessel 7 to separate the oil, and recycled through a selector valve 13, a
`
`pressure reducing valve 9, a condense 10, a water separator 15, and a storage vessel 1 to
`
`the extraction vessel 5. Then, selector valves 11 and 13 are closed while selector valves 12
`
`and 14 are opened, and the CO2 contg. the coloring matter is transferred to the second
`
`separating vessel 8, where the CO2 is evaporated to give a coloring matter with a concn. of
`
`2000-10000 mg/100g.
