The working principle of the essential oil hydrosol extraction equipment is to extract the aromatic substances or active ingredients in the plant through different extraction methods to form essential oil or hydrosol. These extraction methods include distillation, pressing, solvent extraction and so on.
Distillation is one of the most commonly used extraction methods. In this process, the plant material is put into a distillation device and then heated to vaporize the aromatic substances or active ingredients in the plant. These substances are then condensed and collected in the receiver to form an essential oil or hydrosol.
Another commonly used extraction method is the pressing method. This method is commonly used to extract essential oils from citrus fruits. In this process, the peels are fed into a special press that squeezes the peels to extract the essential oils.
Solvent extraction is a more complex extraction method, which is commonly used to extract fat-soluble components from plants. In this process, the plant material is soaked in a chemical solvent and then heated or stirred to help the solvent dissolve its components. These components are then evaporated or separated out to form essential oils or hydrochemicals.
Each of these extraction methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, and which method is chosen depends on the desired ingredient, plant material, and the purpose of the extract.
