Product Details
Product Introduction
The function of a distillation column is to heat a liquid to its boiling point, exploit the differences in volatility among the components of the mixture to induce vaporization, and then condense the vapor back into a liquid, thereby achieving separation and purification of the components.
Product Features
1. Distillation in a distillation column allows direct production of the desired product, whereas extraction requires the addition of an absorbent or extractant to further separate the target component from the added substance; thus, distillation is comparatively simpler.
2. Distillation has a broad range of applications: it can not only separate liquid mixtures, but also, by adjusting the operating pressure, enable the separation of mixtures that are gaseous or solid at ambient temperature and pressure after they have been liquefied.
Product Applications
The distillation kettle can be used to distill organic solvents such as ethanol and methanol, and is also widely employed in the production of essential oils and hydrosols from aromatic plants (including peppermint, chamomile, cinnamon, sage, lavender, lemon balm, orange blossom, patchouli, Bulgarian rose, rosemary, rosewood, sandalwood, tea tree, verbena, geranium, juniper, cypress, and more). It can likewise be utilized for the extraction of chemical constituents from traditional Chinese medicines, such as ephedrine and aesculin.
