Rendemen dan kualitas minyak nilam (Pogostemon cablin Benth.) dari Kalimantan Timur serta analisis tekno-ekonominya

This study aimed to determine the patchouli oil (PO) business in province of East Kalimantan based on data yield and quality PO produced from several production centers Kalimantan. Bangun Rejo Village Kutai Kartanegara Regency, Sepaku I Argo Mulyo Penajam Paser Utara Regency were selected as samples this study. extraction plant each village was carried out using a laboratory-scale wet distillation method (3 kg leaves, branches) per batch. Each batch with six replications different samples. The sample by farmers used control. results showed that three villages reached 1.25-1.76%, while an acid number 2.407-4.747%, ester 11.843-16.768%, content 33.670-43.693%, iron 1.096-8.538 mg/kg, density 0.614-0.822 g/cm3, refractive index 1.509 nD20 light-yellow yellow. has 6.311-11.920%, 16.269-19.822%, ethanol solubility 1:5-1:9, alcohol 31.96-40.89%, 0.460-1.105 0.946-1,509 1.508-1.510 yellow dark colour. Techno-economic analysis (using data) shows refining two is feasible be B/C values 3.62 6.37 for Village. Still, it not (B/C value 0.842)
