Embodiment 1

[0028] Choose fresh citrus fruit-navel orange, take the skin and remove the white skin layer until the peel thickness is 0.1cm, the processed navel orange peel is crushed, and the diameter of the crushed particles is 0.2cm; the crushed navel orange peel particles are frozen at -5℃ for 10 minutes Then move to 10°C to thaw, and then freeze the thawed navel orange peel pellets at -5°C for 10 minutes and then move to 10°C to thaw; select pectinase and cellulase according to the mass ratio of pectinase to cellulase 1 :1 Prepare the composite enzyme, then use the composite enzyme and water to prepare the enzyme solution with a mass percentage of 0.2% (the mass percentage of the composite enzyme in the enzyme solution), and adjust the pH of the enzyme solution to 3.5 with a citric acid-disodium hydrogen phosphate buffer solution. The molar concentration of the citric acid solution is 0.1 mol / l, and the molar concentration of the disodium hydrogen phosphate solution is 0.2 mol / l; the na...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting citrus pericarp essential oil, which comprises the following steps: selecting fresh citrus pericarps, removing the white pericarp layer until the pericarp thickness is 0.1-0.2cm, mincing, repeatedly freezing and thawing for 2-5 times, preparing a compound enzyme from pectinase and cellulose at a mass ratio of (1-6):1, preparing an enzyme solution, mixing the pretreated citrus pericarp particles with the compound enzyme solution, and performing enzymolysis in a dark place for 5-30min; and performing condensation and reflux extraction of the hydrolyzed citrus pericarps with n-hexane, and removing n-hexane to obtain essential oil. The method disclosed by the invention adopts a physical process of repeated freezing and thawing to conduct initialbreak of cell walls of citrus pericarps, and then performs enzymolysis of the citrus pericarps with the compound enzyme, so as to greatly increase the extraction rate of citrus pericarp essential oil. The method also has the following advantages: the extraction process is simple, the natural fragrance is less damaged, and the use value of the citrus processing byproduct - citrus pericarps - can be utilized to a maximum extent. The essential oil extracted using the method disclosed by the invention has pure texture and has the natural fragrance of citrus fruits.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a citrus peel essential oil, in particular to a method for extracting citrus peel essential oil. Background technique [0002] Citrus peel essential oil is a fragrance oil extracted from citrus peel. It has the characteristics of natural environmental protection and pleasant aroma. It is widely used in food, cosmetics and other industries. At the same time, as a natural non-toxic organic solvent, it is widely used in medicine and chemical industries. Studies have shown that citrus peel oil has the effects of expectorating, relieving cough, promoting gastrointestinal peristalsis, promoting digestive juice secretion, analgesia, dissolving gallstones, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects. [0003] At present, the extraction methods of essential oils widely used in production mainly include steam distillation, squeezing, and solvent extraction. In addition, there is supercritical fluid extraction. However, due to high equipment req...
