The research was directed toward studying the rate of the distillation and yield of etheric oils from the wooded greenery conifers (fir, spruce, pine, juniper and Douglas fir) by using a new procedure. Before distillation, the samples were treated with microwaves under laboratory conditions, and the influence of microwaves on the duration of the distillation and yield of etheric oil compared to steam distillation was analyzed. The results showed that less time was required to achieve the same yield during the distillation, if the samples were treated with microwaves, which can be a significant economic factor in the production of the etheric oil.
