Model predictive control for steam distillation essential oil extraction process / Nazurah Tajjudin
Steam distillation technique is a common method being used in essential oil production from botanical plants. The process depends on the pressurized steam and temperature that circulates through the materials inside a container. Some of the material is sensitive to high temperature where it could ha...
