Description

We carried out comprehensive technological innovation to resolve problems related to post-squeezing yuzu waste. The concepts underpinning this project are effective utilization of agricultural waste ; preservation of the environment ; and recycling of resources toward eco-consciousness. We developed a steam-distillation extractor, equipped with an ultrasonic generator, to recover high quality pure essential oil from post-squeezing yuzu waste more effectively than by the conventional method. We also developed a new bio-system including specific facilities for the purification of the resultant wastewater and for the generation of compost from the post-distillation yuzu waste residue.
