Study on the effect of hydrodistillation on yield and limonene composition of various citrus essential oil and its application as natural aromatic gel

There is rapid growth in the usage and demand of crude oil in various industrial fields. Thus, the price of the petrol is rising due to the stronger-than-expected demand for petroleum products. Nowadays, simulation has become an important tool in the behavior study of almost all chemical processes....
