Hydro-Distillation and Steam Distillation from Aromatic Plants
Hydro-distillation and steam distillation from aromatic plants Sudeep Tandon Scientist Chemical Engineering Division CIMAP, Lucknow HISTORY Written records of herbal distillation are found as early as the first century A.D., and around 1000 A.D., the noted Arab physician and naturalist Ibn Sina also known as Avicenna described the distillation of rose oil from rose petals The ancient Arabian people began to study the chemical properties of essential oils & developed and refined the distillation process Europeans began producing essential oils in the 12th century 1 DISTILLATION ? A process in which a liquid or vapour mixture of two or more substances is separated into its component fractions of desired purity, by the application and removal of heat. In simple terms distillation of aromatic herbs implies vaporizing or liberating the oils from the trichomes / plant cell membranes of the herb in presence of high temperature and moisture and then cooling the vapour mixture to separate out the oil from water. It is the most popular widely used and cost effective method in use today for producing majority of the essential oils throughout the world Distillation is an art and not just a “Chemical" process that is reliant upon many factors for successful quality oil production. BASIC SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS To convert any liquid into a vapour we have to apply energy in form of heat called as latent heat of vaporization A liquid always boils at the temperature at which its vapour pressure equals the atmospheric / surrounding pressure For two immiscible liquids the total vapour pressure of the mixture is always equal to the sum of their partial pressures The composition of the mixture will be determined by the concentration of the individual components into its partial pressure As known the boiling point of most essential oil components exceeds that of water and generally lies between 150 – 300oC 2 If a sample of an essential oil having a component ‘A’ having boiling point for example 190oC and the boiling point of the water is 100oC. -

Naturforsch. 60b, 1197 – 1201 (2005); received July 14, 2005 The supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of clove bud essential oil was studied using CO2 as sol- vent. The effect of operation conditions was analyzed in a series of experiments at temperatures between 325 and 416 K and pressures between 110 and 190 bar. The collected extracts were ana- lyzed and the relative composition of the essential oil was determined. The optimum condition was found in a temperature of 353 K and at a pressure of 190 bar, minimizing the number of extracts to two compounds (eugenol and eugenyl acetate). The extract obtained from clove bud by using su- percritical fluid extraction was compared with the essential oil obtained by steam distillation and microwave-assisted extraction by considering both quantity and quality of the product. The oil yield was higher in steam distillation and microwave oven extraction. In contrast, oil extracted by using SFE contained higher amount of eugenol and eugenyl acetate. Key words: Clove Bud, Eugenol, Extraction Introduction The high pressure is used for processes where to- Identification, extraction and preparation of clove tal extraction of a target compound is desired, since bud oil are gaining interest as its applications are most extractable compounds exhibit their maximum becoming widespread in different sectors like food, solubility in a supercritical solvent at higher pressures. -

Mention of trade names or commercial products does not constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. Executive Summary E.1 Background Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were once used as a plasticizer in certain building materials such as caulking, sealants, and paints from the 1950s through the late 1970s. Because PCBs have a variety of adverse health effects in animals and human, federal regulations have specific requirements for use and disposal of PCB-containing materials (U.S. EPA, 2005; 2009). Briefly, building materials that contain 50 ppm or more PCBs are not authorized for use and must be disposed of as PCB bulk product waste according the Code of Federal Regulations 40 CFR §761.3 and §761.62. If PCBs have contaminated either the surrounding building materials or adjacent soil, these materials are considered PCB remediation waste, which is subject to the cleanup and disposal requirements according 40 CFR §761.61. -

However, little is known about the potentially large and novel aromatic diversity contained in these wild citruses. In this study, we characterized and compared the essential oils obtained from peels and leaves from representatives of both Papeda groups, and three related hybrids. Using a combination of GC, GC-MS, and 13C-NMR spectrometry, we identified a total of 60 compounds in peel oils (PO), and 76 compounds in leaf oils (LO). Limonene was the major component in almost all citrus PO, except for C. micrantha and C. hystrix, where β-pinene dominated (around 35%).

However, bioactivity of its molecular distillate has not been well studied. In this study, a light phase oil was obtained by molecular distillation from cold-pressed grapefruit essential oil and GC-MS was used to identify its chemical composition. The antimicrobial activity of the light phase oil was tested by filter paper diffusion method, and the anticancer activity was determined by the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Twenty-four components were detected with a total relative content of 99.74%, including 97.48% of terpenes and 1.66% of oxygenated terpenes. The light phase oil had the best antimicrobial effect on Bacillus subtilis, followed by Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonellaty phimurium. DPPH and ABTS assays demonstrated that the light phase oil had good antioxidant activity. The CCK-8 assay of cell proliferation showed that the light phase oil had a good inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HepG2 liver cancer cells and HCT116 colon cancer cells. -

Steam Distillation of Orange Oil
Chem 306 Name_______________________ Partners_______________________ _______________________ _______________________ Section (Circle) M Tu W Th Date_______________________ STEAM DISTILLATION OF ORANGE OIL Materials: 3 oranges, boiling chips, NaCl, ice, blender, grater, 50 mL buret, distillation apparatus, screw-top vial, ice, stirring rod, rinse bottle, vacuum grease, aluminum foil, cleaning brushes, detergent (Dawn) Purpose: In this laboratory activity you will separate orange oil from orange peel by the technique of steam distillation. Introduction: In this experiment we will be extracting D – limonene (4-Isopropeny-1- methyl-cyclohexene) from orange peel by use of steam distillation. Limonene belongs to a class of compounds called terpenes. Terpenes are a large and varied class of hydrocarbons, produced primarily by a wide variety of plants, particularly conifers. They are the major components of resin, and of turpentine produced from resin. The name "terpene" is derived from the word "turpentine". When terpenes are modified chemically, such as by oxidation or rearrangement of the carbon skeleton, the resulting compounds are generally referred to as terpenoids. Terpenes and terpenoids are the primary constituents of the essential oils of many types of plants and flowers. Essential oils are used widely as natural flavor additives for food, as fragrances in perfumery, in aromatherapy, and in traditional and alternative medicines. Synthetic variations and derivatives of natural terpenes and terpenoids also greatly expand the variety of aromas used in perfumery and flavors used in food additives. The building block of all terpenes is an isoprene unit. A limonene molecule contains two isoprene units. or “Isoprene” Units The terpene D-limonene is the major chemical component in orange oil and has a variety of uses.
