Abstract
This work consists of the steps for the assembly of a Supercritical Antisolvent Precipitation laboratory equipment and evaluation of the parts acquisition costs. A flow diagram with all components was developed, a complete list of all necessary components was presented, and an estimate of the acquisition of these parts in Brazil was reported. The stages of construction along with the importance of each component in the equipment were discussed. An equipment designs were presented as a result of the current work that serve as a basis for consulting future work on the development of new equipment.
