Description

Within one hour you will learn everything about the ideal distillation unit to meet your needs and the difference between various types of stills. In addition to theory, you can also watch two different distillations being carried out live.

Content

  • The right material for the still
  • What is the optimum design
  • What size should the still be?
  • Comparison: steam temperature measurement vs. density measurement in the receiver
  • Water bath, stirrer, or burn protector?
  • The right heating source
  • Comparison of one-single-distillation-systems (pot still) to rectification units (reflux still)
  • The entire theory is explained while simultaneously a pot-still-distillation and a reflux-distillation are performed, so you can see all theoretical steps live.
  • Webinar notes for download (13 pages, PDF)

Learning Goals

  • Recognizing a proper designed still
  • You know for which distillates you should use a pot still and for which you should use a reflux still.
  • Determining the optimum still size for your needs
