Geranium (Leaves) Extraction Plant

A Geranium leaves oil extraction plant is a specialized facility designed to extract essential oil from the leaves of the geranium plant (Pelargonium graveolens), renowned for its sweet, floral, and slightly minty fragrance. Geranium oil is widely used in perfumery, cosmetics, aromatherapy, and natural medicine for its calming and skin-nourishing properties.

The primary method of extraction in such a plant is steam distillation. Freshly harvested geranium leaves are placed in stainless steel distillation chambers where steam passes through the plant material, vaporizing the aromatic compounds. These vapors are then condensed and separated, allowing the essential oil to be collected separately from the hydrosol. The oil is filtered and stored in airtight, dark containers to maintain its purity and fragrance.

Modern geranium oil extraction plants are equipped with efficient boilers, corrosion-resistant distillation units, condensers, and oil separators, with precise temperature and pressure controls to optimize oil yield and quality. The oil contains key constituents such as citronellol, geraniol, and linalool, which give geranium its distinctive scent and therapeutic effects. The facility operates under strict quality and hygiene standards, producing high-grade geranium oil suitable for use in a variety of industrial and wellness applications.
