PENGARUH DAYA DAN RASIO BAHAN PADA EKSTRAKSI KAYUudCENDANA (Santalum album) DENGAN METODE MICROWAVE udHYDRODISTILLATION: OPTIMASI MENGGUNAKAN RESPONSEudSURFACE METHODOLOGY

摘要

Sandalwood oil is one of the essential oil called etheric oils or oils fly. To optimize the potential of udsandalwood oil, then one attempt to do is improve the distillation method and the operating conditions inudorder to produce sandalwood oil within a relatively short time. The purpose of this research is to study theudprocess of taking sandalwood oil from sandalwood by using microwave hydrodistillation, learn someudinfluencing parameters such as the effect of the ratio between the raw material is extracted with a solventudand the microwave power is used to the yield of sandalwood oil produced, as well as determine theudoptimum operating conditions on sandalwood oil extraction process using microwave hydrodistillationudmethod to obtain the maximum yield of sandalwood oil. The method used to determine the optimumudconditions of each variable is the Response Surface Methodology (RSM). From these results it can be seenudthat the empirical model obtained in accordance with the experiment, in which the optimum operatingudconditions for the extraction of sandalwood oil with microwave hydrodistillation method that yieldsudmaximum sandalwood oil is at microwave power of 601.355 W and the ratio between the raw material thatudis extracted with a solvent of 0.10 g.mLud
