Abstract

This article is based on the study of the scaling of the production of a liquor based on rose petals, where the main research parameters that involve carrying out an analysis of the raw material and the relationship between raw material and product are established. final. Next, the laboratory scale production process was designed as a starting point to obtain a balance of materials and to be able to go from laboratory scale to industrial scale production for a final production of 50 L per batch. With the data from the experimentation and the scaling, a plan of the distribution of the production process in the plant was carried out, which is developed in 7 processes, of which the solid-liquid extraction stands out as the main process, which is where the extraction of the essential oil of rose petals by using the solvent that in this case is ethanol at 95 °. The plant equipment necessary to meet the final production volume was also defined. The project ends with the physical-chemical analysis of the final product, where it was established that the liquor complies with the INEN 1837 Standards for the manufacture of alcoholic beverages specifically for liqueurs, obtaining in our product an alcoholic degree of 25 °, the presence of methanol and furfural that were negative for the product.

Keywords: liquor, essential oil, roses, rose liquor, semi-continuous.
