What is the best method to separate water from eugenol rich essential oil for crude oil collection?

02 October 2021 1 9K Report

I am extracting betel essential oil from fresh leaf and the essential oil is less in amount which is floating above water. How could I separate the oil and collect the same from oil water mixture. Kindly suggest.

Bidisha Mondal The most common method for the isolation of eugenol is steam distillation. In the extraction and isolation process of eugenol, firstly essential oil is extracted from the plants. the hydrodistillation method can be used.
