5 DECOCTION AND HOT CONTINUOUS EXTRACTION TECHNIQUES<br />
pends on many factors such as selectivity, polarity, boiling point, chemical<br />
and thermal stability, safety, fl ammability, and costs. Despite the economic<br />
advantages of solvent extraction, the use of volatile organic solvents such<br />
as hexane, acetone and methanol for processing medicinal plants has been<br />
limited due to environmental considerations. Hot continuous extraction<br />
technology shall always remain the method of choice for high effi ciency,<br />
economical extraction and with less capital investment.<br />
