Title Of Article :
MATHEMATICAL MODELING AND SIMULATION OF SUPERCRITICAL CO2 EXTRACTION OF ZIZIPHORA TENUIOR VOLATILES
Abstract :
Ziziphora Tenuior is an edible medicinal plant which belongs to Labiatae family. It is often used as a treatment for some diseases such as edema, insomnia, and hypertension in Turkey, Iran and China. The main components of the Ziziphora Tenuior essential oil are p-mentha-3-en-8-ol and pulegone. In this study, the extractions of Ziziphora essential oil has been described by a two-dimensional mathematical model, and the effects of some extraction parameter variations on the extraction yield have been examined. Amongst the said parameters were fluid flow rate, extractor diameter and length and mean particle size.
