Essential Oil Decompression Steam Distillers

Six extraction methods available using decompression for distillation

About Aroma Distillers

Applying steam distillation, this equipment extracts essential oil components from citrus fruits, trees, and herbs. Conventional steam extraction of essential oil applies heat directly, but the heat results in burnt odors and flavors and degrades ingredients. This has been a cause of concern. Motomura's essential oil decompression steam distillers make possible high-quality essential oil component extraction through indirect heating. Decompression distillation also allows the extraction of essential oil components with enhanced fragrance component characteristics.
