  1. The Distillation Process By: Chanelle Grannum

  2. Distillation Distillation is the process of heating a liquid until it boils, capturing and cooling the resultant hot vapors, and collecting the condensed vapors

  3. Distillation’s Use Distillation is used to purify a compound by separating it from a non-volatile or less-volatile material

  4. Energy Used • 40,000 distillation columns in the US, use approximately 24% of the energy consumed by the manufacturing sector.

  5. Uses About 95% of all separation processes used in industry is distillation.

  6. Other uses It can be used to separate three liquid mixtures as well as two liquid mixtures.

  7. Vacuum Distillation Used when liquids break down at or close to their boiling points.

  8. Distillation and Alcohol You have to distill alcohol to make it.

  9. Getting Drinking Water Distillation is also used to purify water to drink.
