Optimization of essential oil extraction from orange peels using steam explosion

Thermomechanical process intensification for oil extraction from orange peels

Response surface methodology for optimization of supercritical fluid extraction of orange peel essential oil

Background: Orange peel essential oils were obtained using supercritical fluid extraction. This method is an important high scaling extraction methods that used for extraction of plant and animal extracts. Methodology: The experimental parameters of SFE such as temperature, pressure, and extraction time and modifier volume were optimized using a central composite design after a 24-1fractional ...

Adaptive Steam Temperature Regulation for Essential Oil Extraction Process

Essential oil is volat ile and sensitive to excessive heat. Many studies had shown that temperature during extraction process had a great impact on the oil quality. Despite of that, until now there are very few research had been published on the control development of essential oil extraction system. Hence, this study was commenced part icularly on the development of a regulated essential oil e...

Application of Multistage Steam Distillation Column for Extraction of Essential Oil of Rosemarinuse officinialis L.

Optimization of processing parameters for extraction of essential oil from Foeniculum vulgare

Background and objectives: It is necessary to specify the best conditions of essential oils production to get more major compound(s) and higher yield oil. The fennel oil is useful in pharmaceutical industry as flavor. The main component of fennel oil is anethole (55-75%). The objective of this work was to identify the effect of  particle size, pH of water, method of distillatio...
