Extraction of essential oils from jasmine flower using solvent extraction method : a study on feed ratio effects
Jasmine essential oils are primarily used in the perfumery industry and have a very high commercial value due to its therapeutic properties. As Jasmine essential oils are composed of heat-sensitive chemical compounds,the use of conventional steam distillation technique would in...
