Citronella oil extraction method
A technology of citronella oil and citronella, which is applied in the direction of essential oil/fragrance, fat production, etc. It can solve the problems of accelerating plant cell rupture, easily destroying heat-sensitive substances, and losing aroma of products, and achieves short extraction time and simple and easy process The effect of running, saving energy and auxiliary materials

Example Embodiment
[0028] Example 1 A method for extracting citronella oil, including the following steps:
[0029] 1) Cut the dried citronella stems and leaves (naturally dried or dried) into short pieces;
[0030] 2) The cut citronella stems and leaves are compressed into a filter bag and fed into the extraction kettle of the subcritical equipment;
[0031] 3) Pouring into subcritical fluid (may contain entrainer);
[0032] 4) Control pressure and temperature for static extraction and decompression separation to obtain citronella extract;
[0033] 5) Repeat step 3) and step 4) once or several times, combine the extracts, discharge, and stand for stratification. The upper oil layer is the finished citronella oil.
[0034] Further, the citronella stems and leaves are citronella varieties such as citral type and Java type.
[0035] Further, the cut short piece is 1-3 cm long.
[0036] Further, the tableting process is to press into a round cake shape (with a diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the ext...
Example Embodiment
[0040] Example 2
[0041] Cut 2kg of citronella stems and leaves into flakes, feed them after tableting treatment, with a material-to-liquid ratio of 1:1.5 (kg / L); butane is the extractant, 0.4MPa, 40℃ static extraction for 30min once. The citronella extract was obtained after the solvent was evaporated in the separation kettle, which was discharged and allowed to stand for 30 minutes to obtain 46.06 grams of the upper essential oil, and the essential oil yield was 2.30%.
Example Embodiment
[0042] Example 3
[0043] 1.5kg of citronella stems and leaves were cut into slices, fed after the tableting treatment, the material-to-liquid ratio was 1:2 (kg / L); dimethyl ether was the extractant, 0.6MPa, 30℃ static extraction once for 30min. The citronella extract was obtained after evaporating the solvent in the separation kettle, which was discharged and allowed to stand for 30 minutes to obtain 38.09 g of essential oil in the upper layer, with a yield of 2.54%.
[0044] Compared with the traditional steam method, according to the first appendix XD of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2010 edition), the essential oils are collected by the volatile oil tester, and the essential oil yield is 2.28%.
