Continuous Distillation Unit – CR Version

Distillation enables the separation of a mixture of compounds with different boiling points. Boiling the mixture produces vapours of different composition to the liquid. Repeated condensation and re-evaporation progressively enriches the vapour phase in the most volatile product.
