Citronella Oil is an essential oil that is extracted from Cymbopogon species. It is widely utilized as a component in various perfumes, soaps, and other personal care products for its fresh, citrusy fragrance. Moreover, it is also used for its potential to ease headaches, lift mood, relieve stress, reduce anxiety, and provide relaxation to the body and mind.
It is also used in various wellness products like inhalers, balms, and ointments. Additionally, it is also employed as herbs in various food and beverage products to enhance its flavor. It is also used as an important ingredient in the manufacture of insect-repellent lotions and sprays to keep off mosquitoes and other insects. Furthermore, it is also used in wound healing and the treatment and prevention of various diseases.
The market for citronella oil is majorly driven by its application in aromatherapy for its ability to reduce stress, ease headaches, and relax the mind and body, which significantly boosts its market expansion. Its extensive usage as a component in insect repellents, cosmetics, and other personal care products further enhances its demand in the cosmetics, skincare, and personal care industries. Moreover, its application as a flavoring agent in a variety of foods and drinks effectively promotes its demand in the food and beverage industry.
Additionally, its employment as an antimicrobial agent in managing and preventing various diseases contributes to its demand in the medical, healthcare, and pharmaceutical industries. Additionally, several factors influence industrial citronella oil procurement, such as the source and purity, cost and pricing, compliance with pharmaceutical regulations, quality standards, technological advancements, environmental considerations, sustainability practices, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, safety standards, etc.
Raw Material for Citronella Oil Production
According to the Citronella Oil manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Citronella Oil production include Citronella stems.
Manufacturing Process of Citronella Oil
The extensive Citronella Oil production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:
- Production via Hydrodistillation Method: The process involves inserting chopped citronella stems and distilled water into a boiling flask with a variation of the ratio F/S 0.2 (w/v) for 240 min, followed by heating the material with a 1000 mL heating mantle and a maximum temperature of 450 °C. Further, the distillate started dripping on the beaker that was accommodated at different time intervals, followed by the separation of the mixture of oil and water by using a separatory funnel. This process results in the extraction of citronella oil.
Citronella Oil appears as a pale-yellow essential oil that is derived from the stems and leaves of Cymbopogon species, mainly Cymbopogon nardus and Cymbopogon winterianus. It has a distinct grassy and lemon-like aroma. Its density is approximately 0.870-0.895 g/mL at 25°C. Its boiling point is around 165-180°C. It is not soluble in water but gets easily dissolved in organic solvents. The molecular weight of citronellal is 154.25 g/mol. It is slightly acidic and is prone to oxidation. It forms peroxides when exposed to air and light. It releases irritating fumes when heated. It should be placed in an airtight container in a cool and dark place to prevent its degradation.
