Phytochemical Analysis of Essential oil of Tanacetum parthenium L. with Hydro-distillation and Steam Distillation

Tanacetum parthenium L. known as feverfew is a medicinal herb which is found in many old gardens. It has been used in folk medicine for reducing fever. Feverfew is a member of the daisy family; it is used primarily to prevent migraine headaches and to treat rheumatoid arthritis.It hasa colorless essential oil that contains one or more of the sesquiterpene lactones as active principle. Tanasetum...

A Portable Steam Distillation Unit for Essential Oil Crops

An experimental steam distillation unit has been designed, built, and tested for the extraction of essential oils from peppermint and spearmint. The unit, using a 130-gal (510-liter) distillation tank, is intermediate in size between laboratoryscale extractors and commercial-sized distilleries, yet provides oil in sufficient quantity for industrial evaluation. The entire apparatus-a dieselfuel-...

A crude distillation unit model suitable for online applications

A steady state, multicomponent distillation model particularly suited for fractionation of crude oil has been developed based on equilibrium stage relations. For a mixture of C components, the present formulation uses Cq3 iteration variables namely the mole fractions of the components, temperature, total liquid and total vapor flow rates on each stage. This choice of variables makes the present...
