  • How to extract geranium oil?
  • In this work, the author used as Soxhlet extraction method to extract the geranium oil. First, collection of geranium leaves and washed with distilled water followed by drying. The soxhlet extraction method is carrying out with several organic solvents such as n -Hexane, Toluene, Methanol, Chloroform, and Water.
  • Which geranium leaf is used for oil extraction?
  • The geranium leaf is n- hexane technique. Because of its simple oil recovery, narrow has been frequently employed for oil extraction . Hexane is the chemical of choice for oil extraction. Seeds or for oil extraction, which is then carried out with solvents. Allow the extracted oil behind. Chemical extraction can be done in a variety
  • How are geranium leaves extracted?
  • In this work, only geranium leaves are utilised for oil extraction, and the shrubs are collected and rinsed with tap water to remove any contaminants. These leaves are chopped and packed in thimble filter paper before being placed in the Soxhlet equipment for extraction.
  • What is the solvent to material ratio for geranium extract?
  • Extract Phase) + ( n-Hexane accumulated in the raf?nate phase). Mass Balance for oil is given by. (Oil present in Geranium). 300/50 = 6 ml/g. Hence the solvent to material ratio is 6 (V/W). a solvent in Soxhlet extraction [14,15]. The geranium leaf is n- hexane technique. Because of its simple oil recovery, narrow
