The invention discloses an extracting process of
lavender essential oil and belongs to the technical field of
essential oil extraction. The extracting process comprises the following steps that newly-picked lavenders are dried and crushed, the crushed lavenders are divided into three parts,
distilled water is added, and the liquid-
solid ratios of three parts of liquid-
solid mixtures are (10 to 22):1 and are increased sequentially; and then the three parts of liquid-
solid mixtures are sequentially subjected to ultrasonic enhancement treatment, and then then
steam distillation is conducted. According to the extracting process of the
lavender essential oil, the mixtures, with the different liquid-solid ratios, of the
distilled water and the lavenders are subjected to ultrasonic enhancement step by step,
steam distillation is conducted finally, thus the defect of low yield of a traditional
steam distillation method is overcome, and effective components in the
lavender essential oil are notdamaged; and the extracting process is easy to operate and low in production cost, no
organic solvent is adopted, thus
medicine residue is avoided, the
equipment requirement is low, and the extracting process is completely suitable for industrial production.
