Villanueva, Sonny Pena dela, Don Severino Agricultural
College, Indang, Cavite, April 1996. DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING OF A THREE-STAGE DISTILLATION PROCESS EOR ESSENTIAL OIL EXTRACTION. Adviser: Engr. Jaime Q. Dilidili.
The study was conducted at the School of Engineering, and at the Central Laboratory, Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite.
The main objective of the study was to develop and test a three—stage process on the essential oil recovery and to recommend the process design of a multi—stage distillation essential oil extractor.
Result showed that the three—stage distillation process improved the recovery of essential oil. The process yields higher efficiency of 84.2%, 76.3% and 79.3%, for the materials lemongrass, ginger rhizome, and eucalyptus leaves , respectively.
The average efficiency of 79.3% is better than the average extraction efficiency ranging from 70—75% (DOST, 1990) Obtained from the distillation technology with cohobation.
