Distillation topics include: Distillation basics, partial pressure, binary mixtures distillation, steam and batch distillations. Distillation is a process that separates components from a liquid mixture using selective boiling and condensation. The process involves heating a liquid to its vapor form and then cooling the vapor to get back the pure liquid.  Here are some types of distillation: Short path distillation: Used to purify a small quantity of a compound that is unstable at high temperatures. This is done under lowered pressure levels and generally involves the distillate traveling... Show more
