Distillation effectively removes inorganic compounds such as metals (lead), nitrate, and other nuisance particles such as iron and hardness from a con- taminated water supply. The boiling process also ...

An exact expression for a key process needed in many quantum technologies has been derived by a RIKEN mathematical physicist ...

The art of distillation is, of course, as old as any chemical process, but the principles upon which its efficient application as a method of separation of complex liquids depend, were very ...

Diesel fuel powers many vehicles around the world. Here's what it takes to make it, from getting oil out of the ground to ...

Water purity is essential for various laboratory applications, from analytical testing to pharmaceutical formulations. Among the different water purification methods, distillation remains one of the ...

Distillation, also known as model or knowledge distillation, is a process where knowledge is transferred from a large, complex AI ‘teacher’ model to a smaller and more efficient ‘student ...

The Chinese company’s leap into the top ranks of AI makers has sparked heated discussions in Silicon Valley around a process DeepSeek used known as distillation, in which a new system learns ...

Distillation columns are extensively deployed in the chemical process industries when there is a need for separation of components that have different boiling points. Typically, a mixture of ...

Other times, a separate distillation unit is used to heat the seawater, and then the desalinated steam cools as fresh water in a collection tank. When used inside a submarine, this process can ...

Fractional distillation works because the different liquids have different boiling points. When the mixture is heated: vapours rise through a column which is hot at the bottom, and cold at the top ...
