Distillation kettle level
Thread Content
I’m wondering if there is a minimum liquid level limit when distilling in a distillation vessel. For example, I’m currently using a 2000L vessel to distill a solvent, of which only 200L is the solute while more than 1000L is the solvent; as the liquid level gradually drops, can distillation still take place with only that small amount left?
One thing is to check your manufacturing process – it needs to be in line with the required standards. Another factor is the mixing process; it’s sufficient if the fins at the bottom are visible. . .
The key is to consider the location of the heating system; if heating is not available, it becomes very difficult to distill out the last remaining amount.
To evaporate solvents at the ppm level, you need to add water and introduce air to create bubbles.
At the ppm level – have you really done any distillation? This is really, really difficult
