| contents | Eugenol is a bioactive compound which is found majorly in the dried flower buds Szygium aromaticum plant, which is otherwise also known as clove buds. Apart from being used as a spice in various cuisines across the world, clove buds are also used to derive the essential oil. Cloves buds are known to contain about 15-20% eugenol. The clove buds will undergo various unit operations such as crushing, grinding and blending in order to reduce their size, from which maximum oil can be obtained. Extraction method has been implemented to yield eugenol from the above source. The method utilized here is the batch distillation followed by liquid-liquid extraction of eugenol from the distillate. The eugenol that is obtained from the clove buds are used to make a wide variety of products such as soaps, toothpastes, toothpowders, fragrances, cosmetics and also plays a very important role in aromatherapy due to its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-septic nature. The main purpose of this project is to find a suitable method to extract eugenol from sources widely available in the market and to make some products out of the eugenol extracted. An equipment design was also carried out as well as calculations to upscale the project if it were to be industrialized. Future scope which includes setting up of pilot plant in each household to reduce carbon footprint impact, recommending the usage of essential oils for a clean and better lifestyle, conducting plant designs, using the same methods extracting essential oils using other natural resources were also discussed. |
