Eucalyptus oil is the generic name for distilled oil from the leaves of Eucalyptus, a genus of the plant family Myrtaceae, mostly native to Australia but cultivated worldwide. Eucalyptus oil has a history of wide application, as a pharmaceutical , antiseptic , repellent , flavouring and fragrance , as well as having industrial uses.
Eucalyptol (also called cineole) is a monoterpenoid colorless liquid, and a bicyclic ether. [1] It has a fresh camphor-like odor and a spicy, cooling taste. [1] It is insoluble in water, but miscible with organic solvents. Eucalyptol makes up about 70–90% of eucalyptus oil.
Top 5 oil-producing countries 1980–2022 World oil production This is a list of countries by oil production (i.e., petroleum production), as compiled from the U.S. Energy Information Administration database for calendar year 2023, tabulating all countries on a comparable best-estimate basis.
E. globulus is the primary source of global eucalyptus oil production, with China being the largest commercial producer. [30] [31] The oil has therapeutic, perfumery, flavoring, antimicrobial and biopesticide properties. [32] [33] [34] Oil yield ranges from 1.0 to 2.4% (fresh weight), with cineole being the major isolate.
Eucalyptus oleosa, commonly known as the red mallee, glossy-leaved red mallee, acorn mallee, [2] oil mallee [3] or giant mallee, [4] is a tree or mallee that is native to Australia. The leaves were once harvested for the production of cineole based eucalyptus oil . [ 5 ]
Energy production and consumption play a significant role in the global economy. It is needed in industry and global transportation. The total energy supply chain, from production to final consumption, involves many activities that cause a loss of useful energy. [3] As of 2022, energy consumption is still about 80% from fossil fuels. [4]
ELOM-080 is a phytotherapeutic extract (distillate) consisting mainly of three monoterpenes: (+)-α-pinene, d-limonene, and eucalyptol (not be confused with Eucalyptus oil). [6] The active ingredient is produced by the German manufacturer G. Pohl-Boskamp GmbH & Co. KG with registered offices in Hohenlockstedt. [7]
World crude oil production (including lease condensates) according to US EIA data decreased from a peak of 73.720 mbd in 2005 to 73.437 in 2006, 72.981 in 2007, and 73.697 in 2008. [12] According to peak oil theory, increasing production will lead to a more rapid collapse of production in the future, while decreasing production will lead to a ...
