lavender oil distillation equipment

Product Introduction 

Essential oils, also known as volatile oils, are a type of oily liquid that can evaporate at room temperature, can be distilled with water vapor, and is immiscible with water. 

Our Bioland instrument company's small-scale essential oil extraction equipment is designed for the extraction and collection of plant volatile oils in industries such as traditional Chinese medicine, health products, biopharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food. It is suitable for extracting essential oils from various vanilla plants, as well as roses, marigolds, and other flowers, with low cost and strong applicability.

Product features of lavender essential oil extraction equipment:
1. This lavender oil distillation equipment uses steam distillation to extract materials through water separation distillation.
2. This equipment is a super small steam distillation extraction device developed by our company based on the classic process of essential oil extraction, combined with advanced automation control system. Reasonable structural design and superior performance. The operation is simple and flexible, and one person can easily complete the entire experiment and production.
3. The equipment uses thermal oil for indirect heating, which can quickly reach a high temperature of 100 ℃ under clean and atmospheric pressure conditions. If the process allows, in conjunction with a vacuum pump, guide the steam to quickly pass through the condenser and collect volatile oils and fats quickly into the oil-water separator.
4. Vacuum low-temperature distillation can effectively recover volatile substances.
5. The oil-water separation adopts a laboratory grade glass multi pipeline design, with a glass pipeline diameter of less than 20mm, which facilitates the separation and collection of essential oils.
6. The device has a built-in multi-layer distillation blue with a top opening structure, making it very convenient to place flowers, plants, and clean the equipment.

parameters of lavender essential oil extraction equipment
1.1) Laboratory research and development: The distillation tank has a capacity of 20-200 liters, suitable for small-scale experiments in universities, research institutes, and enterprise R&D departments. The extraction parameters can be flexibly adjusted, and the material is mostly SUS304 stainless steel, supporting two modes of water separation/co distillation.
2) Pilot production type: with a capacity of 500~1500 liters, suitable for small-scale production in spice and daily chemical enterprises. The equipment has a power of 10KW (380V three-phase electricity), equipped with customized condenser and oil-water separator, and supports continuous stable operation for 72 hours.
3) Large scale industrial equipment: with a capacity of 2000~5000 liters, adopting modular design, it can achieve automated feeding/slag discharge, and can process up to 5 tons of raw materials in a single batch, suitable for centralized processing in the country of origin
2. Core technical features
1) Distillation method: Supports three modes: steam distillation, separated water distillation, and co water distillation. Among them, the steam distillation method improves the extraction rate of essential oils by 12% compared to traditional processes, and preserves ester components more completely
2) Material standard: The contact material part is made of food grade SUS304 stainless steel, and the mirror polishing inside the tank body (Ra ≤ 0.8 μ m) meets the GMP pharmaceutical grade production requirements
3) Energy saving design: Adopting a multi-layer sleeve condenser with a heat recovery rate of 92%, coupled with an intelligent temperature control system (± 0.5 ℃ accuracy), it saves more than 30% energy compared to traditional equipment
3. Selection suggestions
1) Start up brands are recommended to choose a 500L pilot equipment, which can cover the production needs of processing 100kg of raw materials per day
2) The planting cooperative recommends the 2000L mobile version equipment, which can be directly processed in the field to reduce transportation losses
3) The laboratory research and development prioritizes the use of boronated glass condenser models for easy observation of the distillation process
