Essential oils: application and distillation
Essential oils have a wide range of uses, including:
- Cosmetics: face creams, lotions, masks, tonics.
- Aromatherapy: diffusers, aroma lamps, inhalations.
- Treatment: aroma baths, compresses, rubbing, massage.
Distillation is a method of obtaining essential oils from plant materials.
Distillation process:
- Plant material is loaded into a column above a cube of water.
- The cube heats up to a high temperature.
- The steam ruptures the plant cells, releasing the essence of the plant.
- The steam condenses to form an aqueous distillate and an essential oil.
- The essential oil collects on the surface or bottom of the receiver, depending on its density.
