Abstract: In this paper, supercritical CO2 extraction was used to extract the oil from silkworm pupa. The optimal extraction conditions was obtained with orthogonal test. The conditions are: extraction pressure 25 MPa, extraction temperature 35 ℃ and extraction time 3 hours. On these conditions, the extraction ratio of silkworm pupa is 95.99%.

Key words: supercritical CO2 extraction, silkworm, silkworm pupa oil
