- Keywords: From the plant material, essential oils are extracted by distillation. There are three methods of distillation e.g. steam-distillation, hydro distillation & hydro steam distillation. The steam distillation is perfumed by passing dry steam to the plant material, whereby the steam volatile oil present in the plant material is volatilized and passed through the condensers along with steam to the receivers. This method gives better, cheaper and quicker yield, but not applicable to delicate flowers. Hydro distillation is the oldest method of distillation, which involves heating of plant material with water, and steam is generated, within the still. Here, the plant material remains in direct contact with the water in a crude metallic distillation outfit. The hydro steam distillation method is carried out where the perfumery material is vulnerable to direct steam. In this method the plant material is supported on a screen or perforated grid inserted at some distance above the bottom of the still. Here the lower part of the still contains water up to a level just below the grid.
