Question

WHAT IS DISTILLATION .. pratham bro for u​

Answer 1

Answer:

Distillation is the most commonly used method for the separation of homogeneous fluid mixtures. Separation exploits differences in boiling point, or volatility, between the components in the mixture. Repeated vaporization and condensation of the mixture allows virtually complete separation of most homogeneous fluid mixtures. The vaporization requires the input of energy. This is the principal disadvantage of distillation: its high energy usage. However, distillation has three principle advantages over alternative methods for the separation of homogeneous fluid mixtures:

1.

The ability to handle a wide range of feed flow rates. Many of the alternative processes for the separation of fluid mixtures can only handle low flow rates, whereas distillation can be designed for the separation of extremely high or extremely low flow rates.

2.

The ability to separate feeds with a wide range of feed concentrations. Many of the alternatives to distillation can only separate feeds that are already relatively pure.

3.

The ability to produce high product purity. Many of the alternatives to distillation only carry out a partial separation and cannot produce pure products.
