Comparison of microwave-assisted hydrodistillation with the conventional hydrodistillation method in the extraction of essential oil (lemongrass and star anise)

Microwave-assisted hydrodistillation(MAHD)has recently been developed for the extraction of essential oils from plant materials.In this study,microwaveassisted hydrodistillation was investigated for the extraction of essential oils from lemongrass and start anise and the results were compared with t...
