POTENSI PRODUKSI MINYAK ATSIRI DARI LIMBAH KULIT KAYU MANIS PASCA PANEN
Abstract: Kayu manis
(Cinnamomum burmanii BL) is known and cultivated for its aromatic content. In
the previous experiment the powder of kayu manis leather can be extracted to be
atsiri oil. And the rubbish like; leaf, scrap, the powder from cutting tree,
trank are the parts of wood leather that haven’t been used yet, so it will be
appear as a problem for the environment. If the rubbish are extacted by steam
and water destilation it will produce atsiri oil with good quality and good
cost, as a mix ingredient of medicine beverages, food, and parfume. The
experiment goal is to filter by using arrange destilation tool to get output
the process is an optimal rendeman atsiri oil. An the extract metode used is
steam and water destilation. To get a good filter output should be treated by
parameter variety suitable with test tool performance they are; pressure
variety (1 atm; 1,65 atm; 1.85 atm), temperatur (99oC; 114oC; 119oC) and
resident time (1 hour; 2 hour; 3hour). The result of the testing is an output
of the most atsiri oil, it is at pressure 1,85atm, the ingredient weigh is 750
gram, and the resident time 3 hour. Where, the maximum percentage rendeman from
the leaf, powder, and scrap until 1,63 %; 1,49%; and 1,42%. Atsiri oil has not
reached optimum point, because the pressure has not been optimal and the
capacity of the tank is limited. The percentage rendeman up to 1% can give
chance for the rubbish of kayu manis to be processed become atsiri oil. So
that, this research can be continue by project for study of home industry.
