Fractional distillation, also known as fractionation, is the process of separating liquid mixtures based on differences in boiling points. It is widely employed to purify petroleum, alcohol, chemicals, flavors, fragrances, and more. Compared to traditional distillation, fractional distillation offers enhanced separation for components with closer boiling points.
Labfirst Scientific provides both glass and stainless steel fractional distillation apparatuses with a volume going from 1L to 100L, available from lab scale to pilot scale. With over 20 years of expertise in crafting borosilicate glass and stainless steel solutions for the chemical, food, and pharmaceutical sectors, Labfirst Scientific is committed to delivering innovative systems that seamlessly integrate purity, reliability, and superior quality.

Structure
Caractéristiques
High Efficiency
A major benefit of the fractional distillation process is its high efficiency. The height of our standard column is approximately 1 meter, offering 15 to 50 theoretical stages. For different applications, up to three columns can be stacked together, effectively tripling the number of theoretical stages and significantly enhancing separation efficiency.
Modular Design
Our fractional distillation unit features a modular design with easy assembly and high flexibility. The separate and stackable distillation columns makes it easily scalable to industrial applications. The thin film evaporator can also be integrated into the fractional distillation unit to separate heat-sensitive compounds with close boiling points.
Customization and Support
For different applications, the configuration of the fractional distillation unit will differ. We offers a comprehensive of custom options like stirring method, sizes, voltages, distillation column, vacuum system, and more to meet your specific needs. Each component is meticulously crafted to ensure durability and quality.
Labfirst Scientific provides a cutting-edge range of fractional distillation units, engineered to handle the precise requirements of efficiently separating intricate mixtures. With capacities ranging from 1L to 100L and more, our fractional distillation unit is built with a comprehensive selection of custom options for various applications and budgets. The unit is versatile enough to be used for solvent recycling, crude oil and petroleum distillation, as well as ASTM D1160 vacuum distillation.
