Efficient And Safe Distillation Solutions

Working Principle of Distillation Equipment

The basic principle of distillation is to utilize the differences in volatility of different substances to separate and purify components through heating and condensation.

Evaporation by Heating

The mixed liquid is heated in the still, and the different components vaporize in batches due to their different boiling points.

Vapor Rise and Fractionation

Vapor rises in the distillation column. The packing or trays within the column provide ample contact area, allowing light components to rise and heavy components to reflux, thus achieving multi-stage separation.

Condensation and Collection

The rising vapor enters the condenser, where it is cooled and converted to liquid, which is then collected as the target product.

Circulation and Control

Modern distillation equipment is typically equipped with a reflux ratio control system and an automatic temperature control system to ensure separation efficiency and product stability.

Classification of Distillation Equipment

Based on structure and purpose, distillation equipment is mainly divided into the following categories:

Pot Still

Commonly used in the production of whiskey, brandy, and other liquors

Simple structure and easy operation

Retains more flavor compounds

Column Still

Commonly used in the production of vodka, liquor, and industrial alcohol

Large processing capacity and high efficiency

High separation accuracy, capable of achieving alcohol purity exceeding 95%

Core Advantages of Distillation Equipment:

High-Efficiency Separation Capacity

Distillation equipment can precisely control alcohol content from 40% to 96% to meet the needs of different alcoholic beverages.

Flavor Optimization

By adjusting parameters such as the number of plates, reflux ratio, and condensation temperature, the equipment can maximize the retention or separation of flavor components, helping brewers create differentiated beverages.

Energy-Saving and Environmentally Friendly Design

Modern distillation equipment utilizes heat recovery systems and steam recycling, significantly reducing energy consumption and emissions.

Intelligent Control

PLC automatic control systems monitor temperature, pressure, and alcohol concentration in real time, ensuring process stability and reducing manual labor.

Food-Grade Materials

Made of 304/316L stainless steel or copper, it meets food-grade hygiene standards, is corrosion-resistant, and easy to clean.

Wide Applications

Not only suitable for spirits such as baijiu, whiskey, and vodka, it is also widely used in beer by-product recovery, plant extraction, and essential oil separation.
