An Energy-Based Approach to Scale Up Microwave-Assisted Extraction of Plant Bioactives

Abstract Optimization and modeling techniques based on energy-based parameters enable scale up of microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) of plant-derived bioactive compounds. Energy-based parameters, namely absorbed power density (APD) and absorbed energy density (AED), are able to characterize the extraction kinetics of MAE in predicting the extraction profiles and the optimum conditions at various conditions particularly at larger scale operations. The objective of this chapter is to demonstrate the scale-up of MAE using APD and AED parameters. In this chapter, the associated theory, the optimization technique, as well as the modeling technique, are elucidated. This chapter also discusses the applications of APD and AED in equipment design, operational flexibility, and adaptability for various types of plant extraction with the aim to commercialize the MAE.
