Applications of Short Path Distillation

Short path distillation has many applications in various fields due to its ability to achieve high levels of purity and its compact size. Here are some applications of short path distillation:

• Purification of essential oils and fragrance compounds
• Extraction and purification of nutraceuticals and herbal supplements
• Separation and purification of lipids and fatty acids from biological samples
• Purification of high-purity solvents such as ethanol and methanol for analytical and research purposes
• Separation of polymers and plastics for recycling purposes
• Isolation and purification of high-purity chemicals used in the semiconductor industry
• Separation of impurities from petroleum products such as gasoline and diesel fuel

Advantages of Short Path Distillation

• Continuous feed functionality allowing greater production scalability
• Faster completion time, ideal for industries with time-sensitive materials and production cycles
• Perfect for distilling compounds that are unstable at high temperatures
• Automated and easy to use, with simple and compact equipment
• Reduced product waste, thanks to minimal compounds lost on the fringes of the apparatus

Other benefits of short path distillation include its compact size, which makes it highly advantageous for laboratory applications where minimal instrumentation footprint is necessary. It is also easy to implement and achieve high distillate purity levels. However, it is important to note that short path distillation equipment can be more expensive due to the high sealing performance required to create the vacuum necessary to facilitate the process.

Short Path Distillation offers a cost-effective solution for the separation of terpenoids, and flavoring chemicals. Our Short Path Distillation is even more advantageous in terms of price and offers a complete customization service. Our extensive product line provides you with a standard solution that fits your needs, and for more unique applications, our custom design service will help us cater to your specific requirements. With high evaporation rates and good degrees of automation, our Short Path Distillation can provide increased levels of distillate consolidation.
