Experimental study on solar distillation system for oil extraction from eucalyptus plant leaves

Most of the industrial process requires a temperature level below 250?C which is easily achievable using solar energy. Pakistan fortunate enough to have long sunlight hours and high intensity insolation. The mean total irradiation falling on horizontal plane about 200-250 W/m2 per day. This precious source natural energy has tremendous potential in agro-based industry like distillation medicinal plants. main objective this study was conduct quantitative qualitative analyses distilled oil plant. Solar systems had been installed at Agricultural Engineering Workshop, Faculty Engineering, Technology Rosa Lab, Institute Horticultural Sciences, University Agriculture, Faisalabad. system designed according latitude comprised primary reflector, secondary condenser, Florentine flask. In Eucalyptus Camaldulensis Citriodora, essential oils were by conventional for comparing results. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis Citriodora carried out National Biotechnology Genetic results showed that quantity quality same species eucalyptus, controlled same. So, it concluded do not differ significantly either or system.
