The Potential of Microwave Assisted Hydrodistillation in Extraction of Essential Oil from Cinnamomum Cassia (cinnamon)

In this research, Microwave Assisted Hydrodistillation (MAHD) was used to extract essential oil from Cinnamomum Cassia (cinnamon). The effect of different parameters, such as water to raw material ratio (6:1, 8:1 & 10:1), microwave power (200 W, 225 W & 250 W) and extraction time (30 min, 60...
