A still is a device that is used to distill liquid. It is a container that can have different shapes, but usually has a cylindrical or square profile. The distillation cube consists of two parts: the base and the lid. At the base there is a drainage hole through which the liquid is drained after the distillation process. The lid of the distillation cube has a hole to allow steam to escape during distillation. Cooling coils are often placed inside the cube to speed up the cooling process of liquid and condensate.
The still is used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries for the production of various substances such as alcohol, ether, oil, etc. However, it can also be used at home to prepare various drinks, such as wine, beer or vodka. Additionally, the distillation still can be used to heat water or oil in various manufacturing processes.
One of the key characteristics of a distillation cube is its volume, which depends on the amount of liquid that will be processed. There are different types of cubes that are designed to accommodate different production volumes. For example, there are cubic cubes with a side length of about 50-60 cm, and there are square cubes, the side length of which can reach 70-80 cm. The volume of a cube can also be increased by adding additional modules or doubling the cube.
Spherical cubes provide a more efficient method of heating and condensation because they can create more fluid flow through an opening. Nospheral cubes can be more compact and less heavy than their cube counterparts. They also provide greater convective heat transfer and reduced work space. For large installations that require large volumes of liquid to process, hemp-type cubes can provide the largest usable volume per use.
Overall, the still is an important device for processing liquids and creating various products. It can be found in industry and is widely used in
