1) ABSTRACT:

Cinnamomum Zeylanicum is a very popular spice and very useful substances in medicines and food, said to be originated from the island Sri Lanka, southeast of India. The plant is also playing an important role in aromatherapy due to its chemical constituent and also its aroma and scent. It contains cinnamaldehyde, an aromatic compound that have a very pleasant smell …show more content…

The aims of this research are to extract and obtain essential oils from Cinnamomum Zeylanicum using hydro distillation technique method, to analyze the chemical compound present in the essential oil using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer (GCMS), and effective parameters. The hydro distillation method is used to obtain the essential oil from Cinnamomum Zeylanicum by grinding the leaves into a fine powder, weighing and then extracted the essential oil by Hydro Distillation. Next, the sample will be analyzed by GS/MS technique after rotary evaporating to separate between oil and water, in order to determine the chemical composition in the bark of the plant. The percentage of essential oil yield is calculated as the weight of essential oils divided by the weight of bark powder. Then, the essential oil will be tested as aromatherapy oil by using sensory …show more content…

The worldwide market for essential oil growth rapidly. On top of that, nowadays a lot of scientific research presently focused on the industrial development together with environmental preservation. In this contact it is necessary to find the most appropriate technique or method to improve the quality of essential oil. Traditional extraction method used to obtain essential oil have several drawbacks which are longer time consuming, have low extraction yields, laborious, and higher operational costing. Furthermore this method utilizes large amounts of toxic solvent which will effects the environment.

2.3) Aim:
The aim of this project is to optimize the effective parameters in “Extraction of Cinnamaldehyde from Cinnamon Bark Using Hydro Distillation Method”. These will increase the productivity and reduce the of costs of manufacturing process.

2.4) OBJECTIVE:

The main objectives of this research

    Feras Kaid Chem 2415-43 TA: Rio Assessment 1 Conclusion In this lab, there were 4 different distillations that were performed each with the same end goal to separate the two different organic compounds, cyclohexane and toluene. We used the boiling points of the two compounds to separate them using the following 4 techniques: microscale simple distillation, miniscale simple distillation, miniscale fractional packed distillation, and miniscale fractional unpacked distillation. The three different miniscale distillations were used to predict the accuracy of the distillation by comparing them to one other. The most accurate of the three distillations is the miniscale fractional packed distillation because this type uses a Vigreux column instead

    In the year 1600, tobacco spread all through the United States and in the nations around it. To the people in America, tobacco smoking was taken as a tradition which they all had adopted. By the year 1604, James I the king of England, opposed tobacco smoking, saying that it would cause wild behaviors to the people. By then, tobacco smoking had become a habit for most of the people in England and they begged to be allowed to continue doing it. In the year 1612, tobacco was planted not only to be consumed now but also as a cash crop.

    In this laboratory experiment, 3.030 g of Isopentyl Acetate was synthesized and formed by the esterification of acetic acid with Isopentyl Alcohol. 1.0 mL of Sulfuric acid was used as a catalyst in the reaction. The excess Isopentyl Acetate was used to shift the reaction to the right for esterification to occur. During the extraction, the excess of acetic acid and Isopentyl alcohol was extracted with sodium bicarbonate, and further purification of the Isopentyl acetate was done after through drying with anhydrous sodium sulfate and through simple distillation. The percent yield of the Isopentyl Acetate was 46.6 percent with a theoretical yield of 6.502g. In this laboratory experiment the acetic acid was in excess and the Isopentyl Alcohol was the limiting reagent,

    - The calculated TWA for the personal sample is (0.041 ppm), which did not exceed OSHA-PELs (0.75 ppm) for Formaldehyde, but did exceed both ACGIH-TLVs (0.3 ppm) and NIOSH-RELs (0.016 ppm) for Formaldehyde. - The calculated TWA for the desk area sample is (0.022 ppm), which did not exceed OSHA-PELs (0.75 ppm) for Formaldehyde nor did it exceed ACGIH-TLVs (0.3 ppm), but it did exceed the NIOSH-RELs (0.016 ppm) for Formaldehyde. - The calculated TWA for the cadaver area sample is (0.032 ppm), which did not exceed OSHA-PELs (0.75 ppm) for Formaldehyde, but did exceed both ACGIH-TLVs (0.3 ppm) and NIOSH-RELs (0.016 ppm) for Formaldehyde. • Discussion and Conclusion: To calculate the TWA a similar exposure method was used to assume worst case scenario. The results showed that the worker was not exposed to Formaldehyde concentrations exceeding OSHA-PELs in all calculated TWAs, which are the maximum exposure limits allowed under Federal law, which should be followed by the employers to protect the health of their workers.

    Abstract During this experiment we will produce Isopentyl Acetate via the fisher mechanisms. The alcohol group is converted into an ester giving off a banana scent. This reaction does not favor the products therefore we must add an excessive amoinut of Acetic Acid to shift the equilibrium to favor the products. Our results showed a successful reaction by comparing our boiling results and infrared results to the textbook data on Isopentyl Acetate. Introduction Isopentyl Acetate is an ester that is commonly referred to as banana oil, this is due to the similarity in odor of bananas.

Providing continuous cleansing of the airway surface, which is a vital defense against inhaled particles. Materials and Methods a. experimental design: To begin the experiment we made two groups one called the control group and one called the experimental group with tobacco. For the control group we added a mixture of 20 microliters of tetrahymena, 1% India ink and 1% of glutaraldehyde to a microscope slide to create the control group . In the experimental tobacco group we added the same amount of substances only difference was 50 microliters of tobacco extract was added to the mixture.
