SCO2 Information

Nextract Technology is a breakthrough supercritical CO₂ biomass extraction process for industrial food and beverage manufacturers. Today that biomass gets composted, burned, sold as animal feed, or hauled away. But locked inside are fibers, oils, bioactives, and proteins worth thousands of dollars per ton. The chemistry to recover it has existed since the 1970s, with decades of published research behind it. Legacy CO₂ systems run cycle times measured in hours, require pre-processing and a dozen manual steps, and cap out around two tons per day. SCO2 rebuilt the process from the ground up with industrial engineers who have decades in industrial processing systems and equipment. • Cycle time under 20 minutes • Throughput of 1 to 25 tons per hour • No pre-processing required • Zero solvents, clean-label ready • Finished fractions in a single process step, with no chemical downstream Nextract Technology installs inside the facility you already run. No new site, no rerouting your biomass to a third party, no changes to the lines producing it. The stream that leaves your process today feeds the system instead. We work with industrial-scale processors who have real volume and are ready to turn that biomass into a second revenue line. No new inputs, no new raw material cost. Nextract Technology is an innovation by SCO2, Inc., founded in 2019 to transform the food system by wasting less. sco2.com
