Distillation is a thermodynamic separation process. It uses the different boiling points of each component in the mixture or liquid-solid system to evaporate the low boiling point components, and then condenses to separate all the components. There are two types of unit operations: evaporation and condensation. Union of unit operations. To make distilled spirits (or spirits), you need to distill and ferment grains. Distillation is not only used to produce spirits. It is one of the most popular production processes for any chemical engineer and is ideal for separating various ingredients from each other. What happens during distillation When you distill a mixture of two liquids (for simplicity, we reserve it as two liquids)) heat the mixture to evaporate one of them. You can then capture the evaporated components in another part of the equipment (the condenser). In other words, you can take advantage of the difference in boiling points to separate them from each other. However, you will almost never be completely separated as easily as possible. Usually, you need several steps, and even then, you can't completely separate them (this is the case with water and alcohol). A mixture of alcohol and water Alcohol (ethanol) and water. The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit), while the boiling point of alcohol is only about 100 degrees Celsius. 78 degrees Celsius (172 degrees Fahrenheit). Because alcohol has a lower boiling point, it evaporates more easily. Thus, Raoul's law tells you that the gas above the mixture contains a higher percentage of alcohol than the liquid mixture. During distillation, we use this phenomenon to separate our two liquids. Heat alcohol and water During the distillation process, you heat the liquid mixture (water + alcohol). As a result, part of the liquid will evaporate. This gas is a mixture of two components, but will contain more of the ingredient with the lowest boiling point (in our case alcohol). This gas then moves to another area, the condenser. The area is colder, so the gas returns to the liquid. This new liquid now contains more alcohol than the original liquid. This is the simplest one-step distillation process. Contact us We can customize the product specifications according to your requirements. If you have any needs or questions, please contact us.
