Optimization of small agarwood hydrodistillation systems: An analytical study to determine the required cooling water flow for optimal operation of an agarwood-hydrodistillation system

Cooling systems in a hydrodistillation consists of clevenger type condenser that condensates steam for collecting extracted essential oil. An analytical study was used to compute the required cooling water flow in the condenser to completely change the generated steam from the still to liquid in the...
