  • Extraction - Methods of Extracting Essential Oils & Resins - Steam Distillation, Maceration, Cold-Pressing, Solvent Extraction, High Pressure CO2 Extraction - plantresins.co m: Solvent Extraction: A hydrocarbon solvent is added to the plant material to help dissolve the essential oil. When the solution is filtered and concentrated by distillation, a substance containing resin (resinoid), or a combination of wax and essential oil (known as concrete) remains. From the concentrate, pure alcohol is used to extract the oils or fats. When the alcohol evaporates, the oil is left behind. The solvents can leave a heavy residue behind, but it's great for making resins for this very reason. High Pressure CO2 Extraction: Only recently developed, this method uses Carbon Dioxide to extract the alkaloids, essential oils, or resins from the plant when liquefied under pressure. After the liquid depressurizes, the carbon dioxide returns to a gaseous state, and only pure essential oil, resins, or alkaloids remain.
