The steam distillation process is considerably cheap compared to other methods [9] and has potential for commercialization [13] due to its reliability in producing mass oil production. Several studies were carried out to compare the essential oil quality profiles and its production rate gained by steam distillation with several other extraction methods. Based on [14, 22], the relative chemical composition of volatile compound obtained by steam distillation and superheated water extraction (SWE) were proven similar. In fact, steam distillation itself can produce 0.24% more oil production in contrast with superheated water extraction. Moreover, Scalia et al. [15] proved that qualitative profile of essential oils obtained by the supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) was comparable with those produced by steam distillation process. Indeed, Ammann et al. [13] was concluded that steam distillation was the most effective technique as compared to SFE and SWE. While, comparing with supercritical carbon dioxides methods, steam distillation had produced more yields and in fact the quality of oil extracted by both methods is similar. Additionally, by taking advantage of operational and system cost-effective, automated steam distillation may execute desired outcome. This paper focused on how steam temperature, as controlled parameter, influence oil quality and productivity. In previous study by Li et al. [16], temperature exhibited the most significant effect on yield production followed by extraction time and particle size. Moreover, Silou et al. [17] revealed that the extraction rate in steam distillation had been decreased as the temperature and extraction time increased. If the extracted botanical plant is exposed to high temperature or prolong heating during extraction process, the essential oil may experience thermal degradation [14-15]. As a result, quality of oil will reduce and degrade the oil aromatic profiles and its physical color.
