Essential oil was extracted from lavender using supercritical carbon dioxide by means of a newly developed periodic static‐dynamic (PSD) procedure and the conventional semicontinuous (SC) technique. Applying GC‐FID analysis in conjunction with Box‐Behnken design, an optimum overall extraction yield...
