Chemists move toward production of valuable essential oil
The Vietnam Chemical Technology Institute, the HCMC Department of Science and Technology and Tinh Dat Viet Ltd. join forces on large-scale Aquilaria oil production.
“The global demand for Aquilaria oil is tremendous with supply at only 40 percent of demand. And every liter of this oil is sold for US$10,000 to $14,000 on the market,” said Ho Ngoc Vinh, director of HCMC-based essential oil provider Tinh Dat Viet.
Tinh Dat Viet is responsible for growing Aquilaria trees artificially for the project.
Vinh said the market for essential oil from Aquilaria, a genus of large evergreens native to Southeast Asia, is expanding.
In places like France, Germany, the US and the Middle East, Aquilaria oil, treasured for it fragrance, is used to produce incense and perfumes.
The trees, Vinh said, are precious because they can produce an aromatic resin within the heartwood through a parasite infection process.
“The amount of resin produced determines the value of an Aquilaria tree.”
Of different types of Aquilaria, Aquilaria Crassna can produce the most and best resin.
“A major concern, though, is that the naturally-grown Aquilaria resources are shrinking,” said Vinh.
“So we have been growing the trees artificially across the country.”
Under the project, 950 Aquilaria trees have been planted in the central province of Quang Nam and 4,000 and 2,500 in the Mekong Delta provinces of An Giang and Kien Giang respectively.
“We have also been growing the trees on different scales in other places including Binh Dinh, Ha Tinh and the central highlands,” said Vinh.
The project's ultimate purpose, according to Vinh, is to produce Aquilaria oil using supercritical fluid carbon dioxide oil extraction techniques for domestic consumption as well as export.
Aquilaria oil production in Vietnam is still mostly done by hand and scattered across the country, Vinh said, though the country has garnered US$10 million to $15 million in Aquilaria annual exports.

The Vietnam Chemical Technology Institute and the HCMC Department of Science and Technology are now working on equipment to ensure large-scale and efficient production of the oil.
“To put it simply, under this technology, Aquilaria wood goes through various processing phases including grinding, purification, and extraction,” said Vinh.
Once in place, the equipment and technology will be available to any business interested in Aquilaria oil production.
The project promises great returns, Vinh added.
“Eleven years of growing 1,000 Aquilaria trees on a hectare of land would cost a total amount of VND151 million.”
“The market price of an 11-year-old Aquilaria tree is now VND4 million, which means VND4 billion in revenues from sales. No need to worry about demand either since it will only be rising.”
