Abstract:

Litsea cubeba fruit as raw material in this experiment, the use of ultrasonic-assisted method of litsea cubeba oil extraction process are discussed. The effects of several ultrasonic processing parameters, such as ratio of liquid to solid, extraction temperature, ultrasonic power and extraction time on the extraction of litsea cubeba oil were investigated assisted by ultrasonic wave. And the L9 (34) orthogonal test was used to research this four factors, the result from the visual analysis indicated that the optimal extraction process was gotten when ratio of liquid to solid was 14:1 , ultrasonic time was 50min, ultrasonic power is 320W, ultrasonic temperature is 60 °C.Those experimental results showed that ultrasonic-assisted extraction of the Litsea cubeba oil is practicable, and this method is simple and efficient. With the preliminary investigation of the ultrasonic-assisted extraction of Litsea Cubeba oil, the oil yield reached up to 41.35%, this value is the highest of all the oil yields from the current oil extraction methods, and it is worthy of further exploration .
