Galangal is one of spices containing phenol. This study aims to product phenol in a liquid phase from galangal. The variations performed in this study involve the time of extraction (3 hours, 6 hours, 9 hours), temperature (30 oC, 45 oC, 60 oC) and particle size of raw material (70 mesh, 100 mesh, 140 mesh). One of the analysis in this study is the yield of phenol. The highest phenol in this study is about 4,5%. This result is obtained using 140 mesh of tray at 60°C of temperature and 9 hours of extraction time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
