Separation of two solvents, also called fractional distillation or
fractionating.
A scraper blade used inside the distillation equipment to reduce the
mass of the residual or still bottom.
A separator to be placed after the distillation equipment, to separate
water from the solvent.
Optional water cooling for the distillation unit; used in place of the
air-over cooling evaporator.
A valve placed at the bottom of the distillation chamber to discharge
the still bottom into a container.
Special safeties are used when distilling solvents containing
nitro-cellulose which is very explosive.
Vacuum systems can be attached to the distillation machine to distill
solvent while under a vacuum.
