Oil Extraction The oil from citrus fruits is loaded with limonene. Extract the oil from the citrus rinds and use it to make insecticides whenever needed. A couple of small drops of citrus oil is all that is required to make insecticide spray. Sprinkling diluted oil around gardens repels pests. Keep the oil on hand and mix insecticides whenever a problem arises. To extract the oil‚ dry and grind the peels and leave them to soak in grain alcohol. Strain the mixture and leave the alcohol to evaporate

Limonene Contained in Orange Oil as an Alternative Source of Energy to Produce Heat ABSTRACT The study was conducted to determine if the limonene contained in orange oil is a possible alternative source of energy to produce heat. It is concluded that duration of flame is significantly influenced by the amount or volume of limonene content. The limonene was effective enough as a fire starter. The flame produced had a consistent intensity. Its lengthy duration implied that it has the potential

Steam Distillation of Lemongrass Oil I. Introduction When a mixture of cyclohexane and toluene is distilled‚ the boiling point of these two miscible liquids is between the boiling points of each of the pure components. By contrast‚ if a mixture of benzene and water (Immiscible liquids) is distilled‚ the boiling point of the mixture will be found below the boiling point of each pure component. Since the two liquids are essentially insoluble in each other‚ the benzene molecules in a droplet of
