Steam Distillation: How Essential Oils Are Extracted

Today on Steam Culture, Brent shows us how steam distillation is used in extracting essential oils from plants. Essential oils are used in many different applications, such as cleaning, food preparation, therapy and home remedies. They're used so much that in 2014 U.S. sales were 5.16 billion dollars!

Steam distillation is a separation process, which is also widely used in petroleum refineries and petrochemical plants. But there's more than separating..there's extracting. And for that we need a condensing tube.

Remember the value of your boiler system, maintain it properly and save cost in the future.
