  2. Kugelrohr - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kugelrohr

    "Short path" refers to the short distance that the vapors of the distillate need to travel, which helps reduce loss and speed up collection of the distillate.This type of distillation is generally performed under vacuum to prevent the compound from charring due to atmospheric oxygen, as well as to allow the distillation to proceed at a lower temperature.

  3. Adipic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adipic_acid

    Structural formula of the adipate dianion. The anionic (HO 2 C(CH 2) 4 CO 2 −) and dianionic (− O 2 C(CH 2) 4 CO 2 −) forms of adipic acid are referred to as adipates. An adipate compound is a carboxylate salt or ester of the acid. Some adipate salts are used as acidity regulators, including: Sodium adipate (E number E356) Potassium ...

  4. Calcium formate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_formate

    DIMBA reacts further with formaldehyde to give trimethylolpropane and calcium formate. Calcium formate is separated from the solution, heat treated to remove formaldehyde and then dried. [5] Calcium formate can also be made from calcium hydroxide and carbon monoxide at high pressure and temperature [2] – e.g., at 180 °C and 35 atm. [10]

  5. Distillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distillation

    Distillation, also classical distillation, is the process of separating the component substances of a liquid mixture of two or more chemically discrete substances; the separation process is realized by way of the selective boiling of the mixture and the condensation of the vapors in a still.

  6. Continuous distillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_distillation

    A binary distillation separates a feed mixture stream into two fractions: one distillate and one bottoms fractions. The principle for continuous distillation is the same as for normal distillation: when a liquid mixture is heated so that it boils, the composition of the vapor above the liquid differs from the liquid composition.

  7. Catalytic distillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_distillation

    With catalytic distillation, the company only needs to fund one column which eliminates both the cost for a second column and the cost to move chemicals from one column to another. This optimization cuts overhead costs to nearly half the original cost. [11] In addition to cutting costs, catalytic distillation is a milestone in efficiency and ...

  8. Calcium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_sulfate

    Color code: red (O), green (Ca), orange (S). The compound exists in three levels of hydration corresponding to different crystallographic structures and to minerals: CaSO 4 : anhydrous state. [6] The structure is related to that of zirconium orthosilicate (zircon): Ca 2+ is 8-coordinate, SO 2− 4 is tetrahedral, O is 3-coordinate. CaSO 4 ·2H

  9. Atmospheric distillation of crude oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_distillation...

    The pressure at the top is maintained at 1.2–1.5 atm [2] so that the distillation can be carried out at close to atmospheric pressure, and therefore it is known as the atmospheric distillation column. [3] The vapors from the top of the column are a mixture of hydrocarbon gases and naphtha, at a temperature of 120 °C–130 °C.
