Distillate Extraction Machine

During distillate extraction machine working, the plant material is mostly placed on the sieve frame in the distiller, and through the passage of high-pressure steam, the essential oils contained in the plant glands are released at the same time and evaporated into the water vapor.

After the mixed gas enters the cooling system along the conduit, the vapor condenses back to the liquid state, and then separates into essential oil and flower water according to the difference in specific gravity and density. The pressure and temperature used in this method are relatively low, so it is especially suitable for orange Heat-sensitive essential oils like flower, rose rose, jasmine, carnation, clove, mimosa, rosemary, etc.

First, turn on the heating device of the steam generator, heat until the water boils, and generate steam. During the heating process, it is necessary to control the heating speed to avoid the rapid generation of steam which causes excessive pressure inside the equipment.

When the water in the water vapor generator starts to boil and steam begins to escape from the branch pipe of the T-shaped tube, turn on the cooling water for the condenser pipe, and then start introducing steam for distillation.

During the distillation process, keep the rate of distillation at 2-3 drops per second. This can be achieved by adjusting the heating power or the steam flow.
