Because of their unique properties, supercritical fluids have been known as one of the most promising materials for the future technology. Supercritical fluid technologies have been widely applied to various operations such as extraction, impregnation, nano-particle generation, oxidation, reaction etc. Industrial applications, especially their successful usage of
supercritical fluid, have been reviewed. A special case for the first successful industrial application of supercritical CO2 extraction in Korea was reviewed. Its unique characteristics of enriched antioxidant, 'γ-tocopherol' enabled this industrial application in Korea in spite of its low market price. Also its size and operation conditions were known as world records.
