Method for water distillation
Abstract
Abstract A METHOD OF DISTILLING WATER IS DISCLOSED TO PROVIDE DISSTILLATE HAVING A PURITY OF THE ORDER OF 2 MILLION OHM-CM. RESISTANCE AND ABOVE FROM TAP WATER. THE METHOD IS PARTICULARLY DIRECTED TO PREVENT GASES, AS CO2, NH3, SO2 ETC., WHICH ARE GENERALLY PRESENT IN TAP WATER OR ARE EXTRACTED FROM THE SURROUNDING ATMOSPHERE DURING THE CONDENSING STAGE IN THE USUAL DISTILLATION PROCESS, FROM DISSOLVING IN THE DISTILLATE DURING CONDENSATION. TO ACCOMPLISH THE DESIRED RESULTS THE CONDENSING STAGE DISCLOSED CONTEMPLATES CONDENSING THE WATER VAPOR IN A VENTED CONDENSER AT A TEMPERATURE ABOVE THE ENVIRONMENTAL BOILING POINT OF WATER WITH A CORRESPONDING PRESSURE ABOVE ENVIRONMENTAL PRESSURE THEREBY TO MAINTAIN THE FLOW OF GASES OUTWARD FROM THE CONDENSER AND, FURTHER, TO PREVENT THE UNWANTED GASES FROM DISSOLVING IN THE CONDENSATE.
