SS 304 Industrial Distillation Column Simple Extractive Fractional Distillation Tower

Stainless Steel 304 Fractional Distillation Column for CBD / THC / Hemp oil

——Operation

Feed liquid is admitted into still under high vacuum, immediately spread into a very thin film and forced quickly down the evaporation surface. Heated walls and high vacuum drive the more volatile components (distillate) to the external condenser as the less volatile components (residue) continue down the cylinder. The resulting fractions, thus separated, exit through individual discharge outlets. Depending on application, the desired product is either the distillate or the residue fraction. Small amounts of condensable low MW compounds collect in cold trap upstream of vacuum system. For high solvent loads, an optional external condenser may be installed immediately downstream of the still.

Fractional distillation

Distillation is the process of separation and purification of different components of mixture of two or more immiscible organic liquids with appreciable difference in their boiling point. The separation takes place as more volatile solute will distil first. When the difference in boiling point of liquids is less than 10 K, the separation cannot be achieved by simple distillation as two or more components will distil together. The separation of such liquids is achieved by fractional distillation process.

Fractional Distillation Column is for the separation of miscible liquids. It is a distillation technique used for the separation of liquids which dissolve in each other. Fractional distillation is a process of separating the components of a mixture by repeated distillations and condensations.
