Extraction of caffeine from soda
« on: October 28, 2020, 03:50:25 PM »
Hello all!

Through Google, I’ve found this simple lab experiment for isolating the caffeine in a can of Mountain Dew:

http://chemistry.gravitywaves.com/rtf/CHE102/CHEM103L_Manual/Exp%208%20Caffeine.doc

My question is, if done correctly, would the resultant (now caffeine-free) Mountain Dew be safe to consume?

If not, is there a comparable procedure that would result in a safe-to-drink product?
