2. Steam distillation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_distillation

   Steam distillation is a separation process that consists of distilling water together with other volatile and non-volatile components. The steam from the boiling water carries the vapor of the volatiles to a condenser; both are cooled and return to the liquid or solid state, while the non-volatile residues remain behind in the boiling container ...

3. Steam stripping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_stripping

   Steam is use as a stripping gas to remove hydrocarbons from the waste water. Steam stripping is a process used in petroleum refineries and petrochemical plants to remove volatile contaminants, such as hydrocarbons and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs), from wastewater. [1][2] It typically consists of passing a stream of superheated steam ...

4. Distillation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distillation

   Like vacuum distillation, steam distillation is a method for distilling compounds which are heat-sensitive. [1]: 151–153 The temperature of the steam is easier to control than the surface of a heating element and allows a high rate of heat transfer without heating at a very high temperature. This process involves bubbling steam through a ...

5. Column still - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Column_still

   A column still is an example of a fractional distillation, in that it yields a narrow fraction of the distillable components. This technique is frequently employed in chemical synthesis; in this case, the component of the still responsible for the separation is a fractionating column. A continuous still can, as its name suggests, sustain a ...

6. Stripping (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stripping_(chemistry)

   Stripping (chemistry) Stripping is a physical separation process where one or more components are removed from a liquid stream by a vapor stream. [1] In industrial applications the liquid and vapor streams can have co-current or countercurrent flows. Stripping is usually carried out in either a packed or trayed column.

8. Multi-stage flash distillation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_flash_distillation

   High grade water recycling. Wave-powered desalination. Multi-stage flash distillation (MSF) is a water desalination process that distills sea water by flashing a portion of the water into steam in multiple stages of what are essentially countercurrent heat exchangers. Current MSF facilities may have as many as 30 stages.

9. Evaporator (marine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporator_(marine)

   This steam evaporator aboard HMS Belfast distilled up to six tons of fresh water per hour for the boiler and for drinking. An evaporator, distiller or distilling apparatus is a piece of ship's equipment used to produce fresh drinking water from sea water by distillation. As fresh water is bulky, may spoil in storage, and is an essential supply ...
