Experiment and Numerical Studies on Heat Loss in a Hydro-Distillation with Various Insulations

In Asia, Agarwood oil is obtained by conventional extraction methods which consume significant energy, amount of solvents, and process time. One of the conventional extraction methods is traditional hydrodistillation using stainless steel distiller covered by concrete. This study evaluates the heat...
