Abstract: Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the supercritical carbon dioxide extraction conditions of tea seed oil. On the basis of one-factor-at-a-time experiments, a mathematical model describing the effects of extraction pressure, extraction temperature, separation temperature and extraction time on oil yield was created using Box-Behnken experimental design and analyzed by response surface methodology. The optimal extraction conditions were found as follows: extraction pressure 29 MPa, extraction temperature 43 ℃, separation temperature 36 ℃, and extraction time 74 min, resulting in an oil yield of 26.13%.
