Abstract

Supercritical fluid extraction (SCFE) is an effective method for extracting the bioactive compounds from planting materials as it is more selective and causes no thermal degradation of components. SCFE gives oil of superior quality because extracts are obtained without using any chemical solvents. Three treatment conditions of temperature and pressure i.e. T1= 35oC/75 bar, T2=40oC/80 bar and T3=45oC/90 bar were employed in this study. Whereas, treatment T2 was found to be superior in getting better yield and quality of essential oil while producing 0.18% concrete oil and 0.008% absolute oil then rest of treatments. Whereas, extraction done at 45oC and 90 bar pressure (T3) gave the second highest concrete (0.17%) and absolute (0.006%) oil yield and T1 (35oC/75 bar) treatment resulted in the lowest concrete (0.15%) and (0.005%) oil yield. Moreover, temperature had more influence on the essential oil extraction of M. exotica through supercritical fluid extraction technique.
