  • What are the methods used to extract essential oil from plants?
  • The 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.
  • What are the different types of essential oil extraction methods?
  • Popular extraction methods include: Steam Distillation, Solvent Extraction, CO2 Extraction, Maceration, Enfleurage, Cold Press Extraction, and Water Distillation. The method of extraction affects essential oil quality by way of pressure and temperatures applied.
  • How does extraction equipment affect the yield of essential oils?
  • The extraction equipment is a critical factor in controlling the yield of essential oils. The yield of essential oils obtained from the same plant varied significantly depending on the extraction method used.
  • How are essential oils extracted?
  • IN ESSENCE... Rather than being synthetically manufactured in labs, essential oils are extracted from plant materials through removal methods that are suited to the specific plant part containing the oils. Essential oils are the liquids that are isolated from plants when introduced to solvents ¨C they are liquefied versions of the plants!
  • How can a Clevenger distiller improve the extraction rate of essential oil?
  • Highly efficient extraction of essential oils using a new apparatus. Microwave assistance is helpful to improve the extraction rate of essential oil. The traditional Clevenger distiller is inefficient at extracting essential oil.
  • What is steam distillation extraction?
  • Steam 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.
