Do you need distilled water to clean your coffeemaker? You don't need to run out to the store. Here's how to easily make it yourself at home.

Distillation effectively removes inorganic compounds such as metals (lead), nitrate, and other nuisance particles such as iron and hardness from a con- taminated water supply. The boiling process also ...

A few weeks ago, we wrote about a water distilling rig that [Kyle] hacked together, which allowed him to automate his distillation process. He took his project back into the workshop and tweaked a ...

Unlike certain other types of alcohol, most bourbon isn't distilled just once but twice. The process is complex but yields ...

Cyclon is ideal for laboratories since it can produce clean water at two feasible rates: 4 or 8 Lhr –1 for single distillation and 4 Lhr –1 for double distillation. Water can be distributed ...

Fractional distillation works because the different liquids have different boiling points. When the mixture is heated: vapours rise through a column which is hot at the bottom, and cold at the top ...

Distillation columns are extensively deployed in the chemical process industries when there is a need for separation of components that have different boiling points. Typically, a mixture of ...

The water and molasses are mixed together ... The resulting wash is pumped into a pot-column still, where a process called low rectification distillation occurs. Firtle: We make our hearts cut ...
