Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of essence oil extraction, in particular to a method for extracting melaleuca alternifolia and tea tree essence oil. According to the characteristics of the melaleuca alternifolia and tea tree essence oil, a tea tree essence oil crude extract is obtained through pretreatment of quenching and microwave radiation and extraction of melaleuca alternifolia with supercritical CO2, and the tea tree essence oil crude extract is subjected to molecular distillation to obtain a final tea tree essence oil product, so that the obtained tea tree essence oil is more pure in fragrance, light yellow, transparent and low in impurity rate, the light oil content is larger than 10%, the content of the active component, namely 4-terpilenol, in the final tea tree essence oil product reaches 47.52%, the content of 1,8-cineole is reduced to 2.42%, and the household-necessity-grade standards of the tea tree essence oil are met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of essential oil extraction technology, in particular to an extraction method of Melaleuca alternifolia tea tree essential oil. Background technique [0002] Melaleuca alternifolia, also known as tea oil tree, is the main raw material of tea tree essential oil; tea tree essential oil extracted from fresh branches and leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia is a natural oil, especially the terpineol component in tea tree essential oil, which is widely used Used in daily hygiene products, skin care products, cosmetics, food spices, pharmaceuticals, organic biopesticides and many other fields; the existing tea tree essential oil extraction technology mostly uses organic solvent extraction, although organic solvent extraction has a high yield, but there is solvent recovery. And problems such as solvent residues in the product, the content of terpineol is low, and impurities are difficult to remove. Contents of the invention ...
