CHAPTER ONE
1.0 Introduction
Distillers is a process of vapourizing a liquid mixer by the application of heat in which two distinct or different phases and created namely the vapour phase and the liquid phase and the liquid phase and it is expected that the more volatile component will be found more the gaseous phase while the less volatile will be found in the liquid phase. This separation is achieved because there is usually a difference in the composition between a liquid mixer and the vapour in equilibrium above it. Hence, by careful management of repeated vaporization and condensation from a liquid mixer, pure component fractions can be achieved.
Distillation is thus based on the difference in equilibrium composition between vapour and liquid phases of a mixer. The characteristics and reason for the equilibrium should be understood. The ways in which these equilibrium data can be recorded for later use in distillation design and possible ways of predicting such data are natural pre-requisites for any course on distillation design.
An example of distillation with condenser and reflux divide is applied in the separation of alcohol from water. By the application of heat we can practically vaporize the solution, there by create a gas phase consisting of nothing but alcohol and water since the gas will be richer in alcohol than the residual liquid, a contain amount of separation have taken place. By repeater vaporization and condensations it is then possible to make as complete a separation as may be desired, recovering both components of the mixture in as pure a state as we wish.
The advantages of distillation method are as follows:
In distillation, the new phase differs from the original due to it's heat content, but heat is really added or removed. Although the cost of doing this must inevitable be considered.
Therefore, in turn certain limitation to distillation as a separation process. The gas which can be created from a liquid by application of heat inevitable consists only to the components consisting the liquid, the change in composition resulting from the distribution of the components between the two phases is ordinary not very great. In some cases the change in composition is so small that the process becomes impractical, it may even happen that there is no change in composition whatsoever.
Nevertheless the direct separation which is ordinarily possible by distillation, into pure product requiring no further processing has made this, perhaps the most important of the mass transfer operation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the material for “The Impact of Monetary Policy on Savings Mobilization in Nigeria” be used as a guide for Accountancy / Accounting Project?
Yes it can be used — The study examined the impact of monetary policy on savings mobilization in Nigeria between 1985 and 2016. The study attempted to investigate the impact of monetary policy variables such as broad money supply, deposit rate, inflation rate and real GDP on private domestic savings mobilization in Nigeria. The study made use of secondary data on the variables of interest. Savings mobilization was captured as national savings. Broad money supply, deposit rate and inflation rate were captured as monetary policy indicators and real GDP was deployed as the control variables. The estimation techniques adopted in the study are Augmented-Dickey Fuller test, Johansen Cointegration test, Error Correction Model and the Granger Causality test. The estimation techniques are carried out electronically by the use of …
Is the topic “Effects of Foreign Exchange Rate Changes on the Nigerian Naira” recommended for Economics Project?
Yes it is highly recommended — The currency of a nation is made to appreciate. Is this appreciation made at the expense of the foreign market determinant? Or is it as a result of the country’s effort? It is the aim of this research work to find out if Nigeria apply foreign exchange rate controls, is naira appreciation what we attain to achieve. This research work has five chapters. Chapter one contains a general discussion of the foreign exchange rate fluction as seen by different people. It went further to state the problem to be studied and why this study was carried out, the scope and limitation of the study and finally the propositions and the definition of terms. A number of past related literature examined by other studies as …
Can the material for “Causes and Consequences of Pre Marital Sex Among Secondary School Students” be used as a guide for Sex Education Project?
Yes it can be used — The study was conducted to investigate the Causes and Consequences of Pre Marital Sex Among Secondary School Students. Investigation revealed that premarital sex had an impact on many young people's social status and academic ability, particularly for secondary school students. The idea that sex should be enjoyed in whatever way imaginable is frequently the result of premarital sexual encounters. The research design used in this report is descriptive design, utilizing questionnaire method to obtain information from the respondents for this project. A total of 200 (two hundred) respondents were selected for this study to represent the entire population of the study. For null hypotheses were formulated and tested using the one-way ANOVA and the t-test statistical tools at zero point …
Can the material for “The Impact of Proper Underwriting in Promoting Insurance Image in Nigeria” be used as a guide for Insurance Project?
Yes it can be used — Insurance companies are legal entities that cover the insured against certain unexpected occurrence of an event in exchange for payment of a predetermined amount of money called premium. In underwriting insured risks insurance companies do accepts risks that have different risk profile but the acceptance of those risks are under different conditions which they face a lot of challenges in carrying out these activities because of low modern technology and facilities, lack of professionals in underwriting department which brought to foe low confidence on the insured. This study therefore is exploratory study to determine the impact of proper underwriting in promoting insurance image in Nigeria.

Can the material for “Election Malpractice and Democratization in Nigeria’s Fourth Republic” be used as a guide for Political Science Project?
Yes it can be used — The conduct of free and fair elections has become the yardstick for measuring the strength and credibility of a country’s democracy. The absence of free and fair elections has become an almost insurmountable obstacle to democratization in most African countries, especially in Nigeria. The history of the conduct of elections in the country is predominated with the prevalence of electoral misconducts and malpractices which has weakened the nerves of democratization and the country’s prospects for consolidation of her democratic institutions. In Nigeria’s fourth republic, the crisis of democratization is anchored upon the challenges of electoral malpractice, just as the conduct of elections in the country since 1999 has been inundated with spiraling malpractices in the electioneering process. This study adopts …
