Seed

Mechotech designs and manufactures turnkey seeds & berries distillation plants for Celery, standardised to Seed. We supply the complete machinery to process Celery into a consistent, specification-grade essential oil for the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food, and fragrance industries.

Mechotech's Celery plant is engineered from first principles around the specific chemistry and processing requirements of Celery. Built in SS 316L with integrated condensers and oil-water separation, automation, and full documentation, each plant is delivered as a commissioned, performance-verified turnkey system that reliably meets the Seed specification.

Manufacturing Process

1

Raw Material Preparation

Celery raw material is cleaned, sorted, and (where required) comminuted to the optimal particle size to maximise oil release during distillation.

2

Charging & Distillation

The prepared Celery charge is loaded into the SS 316L still and distilled by steam, hydro, vacuum, or pressure distillation — selected for the volatility and heat-sensitivity of the target oil.

3

Condensation

Vapours pass through an efficient multi-tube condenser with chilled-water circulation, condensing the volatile oil and hydrosol.

4

Oil–Water Separation

Condensate is separated in a stainless-steel Florentine flask; the essential oil is collected while the hydrosol is drawn off (and can be recovered as a co-product).

5

Polishing & Drying

The crude oil is polish-filtered and dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate (or by vacuum) to remove residual moisture.

6

Quality Control

Each batch of Celery oil is verified by GC-MS and physical parameters (specific gravity, refractive index, optical rotation) before release.

Applications

  • Pharmaceutical standardised ingredient supply
  • Nutraceutical capsule, tablet, and supplement manufacturing
  • Food, flavour, and beverage applications
  • Cosmetic and personal care active ingredients
  • Ayurvedic and traditional medicine preparations
  • Export to regulated-market ingredient buyers

Key Features

  • SS 316L Construction

    All product-contact surfaces are SS 316L for corrosion resistance and product purity, with CIP capability between batches.

  • Efficient Condensation

    High-surface-area multi-tube condensers with chilled-water circulation maximise oil recovery and minimise losses of volatile top-notes.

  • Steam / Hydro / Vacuum / Pressure

    The still is configured for the distillation mode best suited to the feedstock, protecting heat-sensitive aroma compounds.

  • Hydrosol Recovery

    Integrated separation allows recovery of the aromatic hydrosol as a saleable co-product, improving plant economics.

  • Scalable Capacity

    Plants are configured from pilot to multi-tonne commercial scale with modular expansion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Mechotech supply the complete machinery for Celery?
Yes. Mechotech supplies the complete turnkey plant for Celery — engineered, fabricated at our Hyderabad facility, installed, and commissioned as a single performance-verified system that produces specification-grade output from day one of handover.
What specification can the Celery plant achieve?
The plant is engineered to reliably reach Seed, confirmed by batch-release testing with full certificate-of-analysis documentation.
What production capacities are available for the Celery plant?
Mechotech builds Celery plants from pilot systems for product development to multi-tonne commercial plants. Capacity is selected from raw-material supply, confirmed buyer volume, and investment timeline; we recommend a pilot plant to validate parameters before scaling.
Which industries use the Celery plant?
Pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food and flavour, cosmetic, and fragrance manufacturers across India and export markets use Mechotech plants for consistent, compliant production.
