- Mechotech: Advanced Solutions Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production Home Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production Frangipani (Plumeria spp.), also known as Plumeria, is a highly aromatic tropical flower cherished for its sweet, creamy, floral, and slightly fruity scent. It is widely used in perfumery, aromatherapy, skincare, and luxury cosmetic formulations..
Mechotech designs and manufactures the Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production as a turnkey solution with SS 316L construction, integrated solvent recovery, and full documentation support. Our plant engineering team ensures optimal process parameters for maximum yield and quality compliance with FSSAI, WHO-GMP, and pharmaceutical-grade specifications.
Manufacturing Process
Floral Material Harvesting
Fresh Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production flowers or botanical material are harvested at peak bloom — typically early morning — when volatile aromatic compound concentration is highest. Speed of processing from harvest to extraction is critical to preserve fresh-note top characters.
Hexane Extraction (Concrete Production)
The fresh Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production material is immersed in food-grade hexane in a closed percolation extractor. The hexane dissolves waxes, pigments, and aromatic compounds. The resulting hexane miscella is filtered and evaporated at low temperature to yield the concrete — a waxy, semi-solid aromatic mass containing both volatile oils and plant waxes.
Concrete Filtration & Quality Check
The crude Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production concrete is filtered to remove plant residues and tested for colour, aroma, and melting point. High-quality concrete is characterised by its rich, natural scent profile closely resembling the living flower.
Ethanol Washing (Absolute Production)
The concrete is chilled to –20°C and washed with cold 95% ethanol to dissolve the aromatic compounds while the plant waxes remain insoluble. The ethanol wash is separated from the wax fraction by filtration.
Ethanol Recovery & Absolute Concentration
The ethanolic aromatic solution is concentrated under vacuum at below 35°C to recover ethanol and yield the finished absolute — a highly concentrated, wax-free aromatic liquid. Ethanol recovery exceeds 95% through the condenser return system.
QC & Packaging
Finished Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production absolute is tested by GC-MS for key aromatic compounds, specific gravity, and colour. It is filled into amber glass vials or aluminium containers under nitrogen, with full batch documentation including COA and GC-MS report.

Key Features
GMP-Compliant SS 316L Construction
All product-contact surfaces are fabricated in electropolished SS 316L stainless steel, meeting WHO-GMP and Schedule M requirements for botanical extract manufacturing. Designed for clean-in-place (CIP) operation between batches.
Closed-Loop Solvent Recovery (>95%)
Integrated condenser-distillation solvent recovery system achieves greater than 95% solvent return per batch, significantly reducing variable operating cost and ensuring compliance with CPCB solvent discharge regulations.
Scalable Batch Capacity
Plants are designed in standard capacities from 100 kg/batch pilot scale to 2,000+ kg/batch commercial configurations for Frangipani Extraction Plant – Premium Floral Oil & Absolute Production. Modular design allows capacity expansion without replacing core equipment.
Integrated Quality Control
In-line sampling ports at each processing stage enable in-process quality monitoring. Plant design accommodates HPLC, GC, and physical testing equipment for batch release documentation required by pharmaceutical and food buyers.
Explosion-Proof Design (Solvent Zones)
All electrical equipment, motors, instruments, and fittings in solvent-handling areas are certified explosion-proof per ATEX/PESO standards, ensuring safe operation with flammable ethanol, hexane, and acetone solvents.
