Computer Controlled - Simple Batch Distillation Setup (With Data Logging Facility)
The equipment consists of a distillation still made of stainless steel. the feed in the still is heated externally by heater. The vapours form the top of the vessel are condensed in the type condenser by circulating cooling water. Temperature of the feed mixture is controlled by means of a digital temp. controller. The condensate is collected in a receiver made of stainless steel. The present s
