Simple distillation is one of the most fundamental techniques used in chemistry to separate and purify liquids. This method is based on differences in boiling points and is commonly applied in laboratories for purifying water, is…
It is a continuous direct-contact dryer employed for drying solutions, slurries, and pastes. Spray dryer , a liquid solution or slurry is introduced in the form of very fine droplets into a steam of hot gas inside a large drying …
Fractional distillation is a process used to separate a mixture of two or more components based on their boiling points. It is used in the petroleum industry to separate crude oil into its various components such as gasoline, di…
A thermometer is an instrument used to measure temperature. It consists of a metal or glass tube containing a liquid, usually mercury, that expands and contracts with temperature changes. The expansion and contraction of the liq…

The operation of separating a solid from a liquid by means of a porous medium (use a wire or fabric filter cloth) is called filtration. The medium retains the solid in the form of a spongy cake, while the liquid passes through it…
Flotation refers to an operation in which one solid is separated from another by floating one of them at or on the liquid surface. In the fourth flotation, the separation of a solid feed mixture depends upon the differences in s…
There are a few different types of classifiers that are commonly used. The first type is a rotary classifier, which uses a rotating drum to classify materials. The second type is a vibrating classifier, which uses vibrations to h…
A jig is a mechanical machine used for the separation of materials of different specific gravities by pulsating a stream of liquid flowing through a bed of materials resting on a screen. Mineral processing is an important step in…
A Grizzly Screen , also known as a Grizzly Feeder or Scalping Grizzly, is a robust screening device used in various industries to separate larger-sized materials from finer particles before they enter a processing system or equip…
