Steam Distillation of Cloves 

Valuable information and as a Chemical Engineer my regards to you Sir

Doctor Derik Frantz, it is good to see such chemical wizardry. I was researching the essential oil content of the plant Syzygium aromaticum and this partially approximates to 3% in the plant in the so-called brute state. Excellent didactic video illustration.

It's very easy to follow and understand. Thank you very much Sir! God bless.

Thank you very much - great video and explanation given

Amazing demonstration!!!! I am ready to perform this experiment next week thank you sooooooo much

Thank you so much Sir. This was so helpful!

So brilliant, thank you.

GREAT VIDEO.....Thanks

Thank you very much

Thank you for your sharing.

NICE INFORMATION SIR LOTS OF LOVE ❤❤FROM INDIA

So wonderful clove make huppy i love so mutch this smell ...i will make alchol replace of wather to get a clove parfum without any phase ...thank you for this amazing video

Good work

tyvm

Hey derik I love cloves thanks for a educational video How do I extract mango fruits oil

Great video. One question I have is why do you salt the distillate with sodium bromide? Is eugenol reactive with the standard salts used to increase the density of the aqueous phase?

great video indeed but i'm wondering about a few things. could you elaborate more on how you decide the quantity of magnesium sulfate, sodium bromide etc... that ur adding along the process. i'm sure they come from some calculation. would be great to have some detail about that. also the last phase involves a rotary evaporator which is unfortunately an expensive piece of equipement (a few k$). is there any alternative to using that, even if it takes much longer? (i guess leaving it a large amount of time in open air would make the job but not sure really...). sorry for the somehow naive question but i'm pretty much new to that. cheers

Thanks for the videos, they're all amazing. Could you please answer me: what will the destilate contain, if we separate methanol and ethyl acetate by destilation under atmospheric pressure? Will we get separate destilates of methanol and ethyl acetate, or maybe a mixture of methanol and ethyl acetate? Thank you once again for the answer

Are there anather org.sol. like benzene or hexane or cylohexane ...et Thank you very much

QUESTION...........In pretty much all books they always use an extra RBF to boil the water and use a glass tube to bubble the steam into the next 2nd RBF containing the plant material or whatever. BUT in real life i only see people doing it the way you are. Just adding the water to the clove and distill it out. Is there any real advantage to doing it the more complicated way by bubbling in the steam from a 2nd RBF???????????????????? And if you did it the more complicated way would you need to heat the 2nd RBF that had the clove in it or would the steam bubbling over be all the heat that is needed?????????????? If you do it the more complicated way do you start with the RBF with the clove with no water and water will just condense from the steam being brought in by the other flask?????????? Or do you add a little water to the clove RBF and the steam bubbling in will heat it?????????????

Thank you Derik Frantz. it's really a very nice video but i think so the filter paper used for the removal of magnesium sulphate also absorb oil that affects its yield. Do you have any alternative for this?

What is the target temperature for oil separation of male frankincense?

Wouldnt it help to squeeze all of liquid from cloves and then start with destilation?

Can we use this for supercritical distilation of ambrette seed to extrate essntial oils,if yes cost pls

is there any way to complete the last step without a rotovap?

Isn't it actually water distillation? Cuz I think in steam.distillation only steam is passed through the clove or substance...pl correct me if im wrong.

what type of efficiency is to be expected from the clove eugenol extraction? I imagine that it's not the most efficient because it only approaches the combined steam pressure of the two.

Omg look how little able to collect from long process!

Please add english subtitles

Why is the neck of your flask so small?

Hi, Good evening Can you introduce a Cardomom oil extraction distillation unit??? If you are not aware kindly let me

What is the principle or theory in this experienc?

That whole set up has a ventilation system.. right.

Is rushing the science for the sake of the video.😮 Start at a low rolling boil and increase when needed.

I hate Aerosmith and the chemistry class or community is being disrupted by the terrible music

Hello great video! Where can I get this distillation equipment, what is the brand? Thank you very much.
