Global Essential Oils Market, By Method of Extraction

Based on the method of extraction, the market has been segmented into distillation, carbon dioxide extraction, cold press extraction, solvent extraction, and other extraction methods. The distillation segment is currently dominating the global essential oils market, as distillation is the single most effective method that can remove 99.9% contaminants.

This is the only process that boils the water and thereby removes virus, bacteria, and other impurities. The major benefit of this technology is that the molecules of volatile oils flee from the plant material and evaporate into the steam, thus purifying the oil. This is the best method of extraction that provides continuous temperature control of the steam implement to the plant materials, thereby reducing dilapidation of the valuable essential oil.
