Thermodynamics of Fluids
Distillation is a separation process that involves heating a liquid to create vapor and then cooling that vapor to obtain a liquid. This technique exploits the differences in boiling points of components in a mixture, allowing for the efficient separation of liquids based on their volatility. It is closely linked to concepts of phase equilibrium, vapor-liquid equilibrium calculations, and the behavior of azeotropes.
