Research regarding obtaining volatile oils fromnative plants in microwave assisted vacuumsystems

摘要

This study aims at examining the process of obtaining volatile oils throughmicrowave hydro-distillation under vacuum. Using the classic hydro-distillationtechnique as a starting point, the authors have designed their own installation,activated with the help of microwaves. They have obtained as such volatile oilssuperior to those obtained through the classic technique.
