Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo compare the ingredients of essential oils of Curcuma wenyujin extracted by supercritical-CO2 fluid extraction and by steam distillation.
METHODGC-MS was applied in this experiment.
RESULTThe ingredients and physical and chemical properties of essential oils of C. wenyujin extracted by supercritical-CO2 fluid extraction and by steam distillation are similar.
CONCLUSIONSupercritical-CO2 fluid extraction is better than steam distillation in extraction time, power consumption, recovery and purity.
