Despite many studies on extraction methods, there is no report about the impact of distillation process duration on the yield and oil quality.
  • QWhats is your material of your machine?
    ACarbon steel or stainless steel(standard type is sus523, it can be customized according to your request)
  • QHow are essential oils extracted?
    AIn summary, classical extraction methods, including steam distillation, solvent extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, and ultrasonic extraction, play a pivotal role in obtaining essential oils.
  • QWhat is steam distillation extraction?
    ASteam distillation extraction is characterized by yield and process uncertainties; however, it is still the most applied extraction method due to its low investment requirements and operational costs as compared with other extraction methods, such as carbon dioxide in a subcritical state, microwaves, ultrasound, and nonpolar solvents.
  • QWhat are the methods used to extract essential oil from plants?
    AThe methods used to extract essential oil from these plants are; steam distillation (SD), solvent-assisted extraction, hydro distillation (HD), ultrasonic-assisted extraction, supercritical fluid extraction and solvent-free microwave extraction (Belhachat et al., 2018). Oil extraction techniques are classified as shown in Fig. 1.
  • QWhat is the best method for essential oil extraction?
    AAuthor to whom correspondence should be addressed. The most-used method for essential oil extraction is steam distillation due to its simplicity and low investment requirements. Due to the importance of this extractive method, technological updates represent an immense opportunity for improving this component of essential oil production.
