Aromatic plants are a source of fragrances, fl avors, cosmeceuticals, health beverages and chemical terpenes. Medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) are traded as such in bulk from many developing countries for further value addition in developed countries. The fi rst step in the value addition of MAP bioresources is the production of herbal drug preparations (i.e. extracts), using a variety of methods from simple tradi- tional technologies to advanced extraction techniques. Extraction (as the term is pharmaceutically used) is the separa- tion of medicinally active portions of plant (and animal) tissues using selec- tive solvents through standard procedures. Such extraction techniques sep- arate the soluble plant metabolites and leave behind the insoluble cellular marc. The products so obtained from plants are relatively complex mixtures of metabolites, in liquid or semisolid state or (after removing the solvent) in dry powder form, and are intended for oral or external use. These include classes of preparations known as decoctions, infusions, fl uid extracts, tinc- tures, pilular (semisolid) extracts or powdered extracts. Such preparations have been popularly called galenicals, named after Galen, the second cen- tury Greek physician. The purpose of standardized extraction procedures for crude drugs (medicinal plant parts) is to attain the therapeutically desired portions and to eliminate unwanted material by treatment with a selective solvent known as menstruum. The extract thus obtained, after standardiza- tion, may be used as medicinal agent as such in the form of tinctures or fl uid extracts or further processed to be incorporated in any dosage form such as tablets and capsules. These products all contain complex mixture of many medicinal plant metabolites, such as alkaloids, glycosides, terpenoids, fl a- vonoids and lignans. In order to be used as a modern drug, an extract may be further processed through various techniques of fractionation to isolate individual chemical entities such as vincristine, vinblastine, hyoscyamine, hyoscine, pilocarpine, forskolin and codeine. The industrial processing of MAPs starts with the extraction of the active components using various technologies. The general techniques of medicinal plant extraction include maceration, infusion, percolation, di- gestion, decoction, hot continuous extraction (Soxhlet), aqueous-alcoholic extraction by fermentation, counter-current extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, ultrasound extraction (sonication), supercritical fl uid extraction, and phytonic extraction (with hydrofl uorocarbon solvents). For aromatic plants, hydrodistillation techniques (water distillation, steam distillation, water and steam distillation), hydrolytic maceration followed by distillation, expression and enfl eurage (cold fat extraction) may be employed. Some of 7 PREFACE the latest extraction methods for aromatic plants include headspace trap- ping, solid phase micro-extraction, protoplast extraction, microdistillation, thermomicrodistillation and molecular distillation. With the increasing demand for herbal medicinal products, nu- traceuticals, and natural products for health care all over the world, medicinal plant extract manufacturers and essential oil producers have started using the most appropriate extraction technologies in order to produce extracts and essential oils of defi ned quality with the least variations from batch to batch. Such approach has to be adopted by MAP-rich developing countries in order to meet the increasing requirement of good quality extracts and es- sential oils for better revenue generation within the country, as well as for capturing this market in developed countries. The basic parameters infl uencing the quality of an extract are the plant parts used as starting material, the solvent used for extraction, the manufacturing process (extraction technology) used with the type of equip- ment employed, and the crude-drug:extract ratio. The use of appropriate extraction technology, plant material, manufacturing equipment, extraction method and solvent and the adherence to good manufacturing practices certainly help to produce a good quality extract.

  • The Separation of Three Azeotropes by Extractive Distillation by An-I Yeh A
    The separation of three azeotropes by extractive distillation by An-I Yeh A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Science in Chemical Engineering Montana State University © Copyright by An-I Yeh (1983) Abstract: Several different kinds of extractive distillation agents were investigated to affect the separation of three binary liquid mixtures, isopropyl ether - acetone, methyl acetate - methanol, and isopropyl ether - methyl ethyl ketone. Because of the small size of the extractive distillation column, relative volatilities were assumed constant and the Fenske equation was used to calculate the relative volatilities and the number of minimum theoretical plates. Dimethyl sulfoxide was found to be a good extractive distillation agent. Extractive distillation when employing a proper agent not only negated the azeotropes of the above mixtures, but also improved the efficiency of separation. This process could reverse the relative volatility of isopropyl ether and acetone. This reversion was also found in the system of methyl acetate and methanol when nitrobenzene was the agent. However, normal distillation curves were obtained for the system of isopropyl ether and methyl ethyl ketone undergoing extractive distillation. In the system of methyl acetate and methanol, the relative volatility decreased as the agents' carbon number increased when glycols were used as the agents. In addition, the oxygen number and the locations of hydroxyl groups in the glycols used were believed to affect the values of relative volatility. An appreciable amount of agent must be maintained in the column to affect separation. When dimethyl sulfoxide was an agent for the three systems studied, the relative volatility increased as the addition rate increased.

First you set the Soxhlet extractors up on individual heating mantles or baths. Next, tubing is individually attached to each of the condensers. There are dozens of tubes to deal with, and multiple heating mantles to monitor. The problem with this arrangement is that in the end, you have spent more time assembling and monitoring your apparatuses than performing the actual chemistry. To conserve valuable bench space, all samples are arranged in a circle and the instrument rotates allowing each sample to be accessed from the front. Individual condensers are connected to the centrally located water manifold through quick disconnect fittings.

  • Distillation 65 Chem 355 Jasperse DISTILLATION
    Distillation 65 Chem 355 Jasperse DISTILLATION Background Distillation is a widely used technique for purifying liquids. The basic distillation process involves heating a liquid such that liquid molecules vaporize. The vapors produced are subsequently passed through a water-cooled condenser. Upon cooling, the vapor returns to it’s liquid phase. The liquid can then be collected. The ability to separate mixtures of liquids depends on differences in volatility (the ability to vaporize). For separation to occur, the vapor that is condensed and collected must be more pure than the original liquid mix. Distillation can be used to remove a volatile solvent from a nonvolatile product; to separate a volatile product from nonvolatile impurities; or to separate two or more volatile products that have sufficiently different boiling points. Vaporization and Boiling When a liquid is placed in a closed container, some of the molecules evaporate into any unoccupied space in the container. Evaporation, which occurs at temperatures below the boiling point of a compound, involves the transition from liquid to vapor of only those molecules at the liquid surface. Evaporation continues until an equilibrium is reached between molecules entering and leaving the liquid and vapor states. The pressure exerted by these gaseous molecules on the walls of the container is the equilibrium vapor pressure. The magnitude of this vapor pressure depends on the physical characteristics of the compound and increases as temperature increases. In an open container, equilibrium is never established, the vapor can simply leave, and the liquid eventually disappears. But whether in an open or closed situation, evaporation occurs only from the surface of the liquid.

  • Effect of Different Extraction Methods on Yield and Quality of Essential Oil from Four Rosa Species
    Floriculture and Ornamental Biotechnology ©2007 Global Science Books Effect of Different Extraction Methods on Yield and Quality of Essential Oil from Four Rosa Species Adnan Younis1* • Muhammad Aslam Khan1 • Asif Ali Khan2 • Atif Riaz1 • M. Aslam Pervez1 1 Institute of Horticultural Sciences, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan 2 Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan Corresponding author : * [email protected] ABSTRACT In the present study rose oil was extracted from the petals of four Rosa species i.e. R. damascena, R. centifolia, R. borboniana and Rosa 'Gruss an Teplitz' through solvent extraction through hexane, solvent extraction through ether and steam distillation. R. damascena yielded (0.145%) of absolute oil, R. centifolia yielded 0.11% whereas R. 'Gruss an Teplitz' yielded the least (0.035%) absolute oil. Solvent extraction through hexane yielded more absolute oil (0.11%) than steam distillation (0.075%) and solvent extraction (0.07%) through ether on petal weight basis. Gas-chromatography of the rose oil was carried out for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the oil constituents. Major compounds identified were citronellol, methyl eugenol, geraniol, geranyl acetate, phenyl ethyl alcohol, linalool, benzaldehyde, benzyl alcohol, rhodinyl acetate, citronellyl acetate, benzyl acetate and phenyl ethyl formate. Both techniques (solvent extraction and steam distillation) yielded oil with differences in the percentage composition of each component, but solvent extraction through hexane proved better (i.e. higher yield and more components) than steam distillation for extraction of essential oil from roses. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Keywords: citronellol, essential oil composition, Rosa centifolia, solvent extraction, steam distillation INTRODUCTION essential oil, which is slowly liberated from the plant material (Durst and Gokel 1987; Wilson 1995).

In Cooperation with the University of Wisconsin 1 HARDWOOD-DISTILLATION INDUSTRY— By EDWARD BEGLINGER, Chemical Engineer 2 Forest Products Laboratory, — Forest Service U. S. Department of Agriculture The major portion of wood distillation products in the United States is obtained from forest and mill residues, chiefly beech, birch, maple, oak, and ash. Marketing of the natural byproducts recovered has been concerned traditionally with outlets for acetic acid, methanol, and charcoal. Large and lower cost production of acetic acid and methanol from other sources has severely curtailed markets formerly available to the distillation in- dustry, and has in turn created operational conditions generally unfavor- able to many of the smaller and more marginal plants. Increased demand for charcoal, which is recovered in the largest amount as a plant product, now provides a compensating factor for more favorable plant operation. The present hardwood-distillation industry includes six byproduct-recovery plants. With the exception of one smaller plant manufacturing primarily a specialty product, all have modern facilities for direct byproduct re- covery. Changing economic conditions during the past 25 years, including such factors as progressively increasing raw material, equipment, and labor costs, and lack of adequate markets for methanol and acetic acid, have caused the number of plants to be reduced from about 50 in the mid- thirties to the 6 now operating. In addition to this group, a few oven plants formerly practicing full recovery have retained the carbonizing equipment and produce only charcoal.

    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.
