Abstract

Twelve ionic liquids were synthesized and used as solvents to extract rose essential oil from rose slag. Tetrabutylammonium bromide propionic acid ionic liquid was selected as the best solvent. Five factors (feed to liquid ratio, extraction temperature, reflux time, stripping agent amount, and repeated extraction times) were considered in the reaction. The results showed that the optimum process conditions were 1:4 mass ratio of material to liquid, the temperature 75 °C, reflux time 4 h, and the amount of stripping agent 100 g; the highest yield of essential oil is 1.6095%. The yield did not show an obvious decline after repeating extraction three times. Comparing the yield, solvent consumption, and extraction time with other organic solvents, using tetrabutylammonium bromide propionic acid ionic liquid can effectively reduce energy and reduce environmental burden, which proves that the technology is sustainable.
