the first step in the refining process. During distillation, crude oil is heated in the base of a distillation tower. As the temperature increases, the crude's various compounds vaporize in succession at their various boiling points, then rise to prescribed levels within the tower (according to their densities), condense in distillation trays and are drawn off individually for further refining. Distillation is also used at other points in the refining process to remove impurities.

takes place in pear-shaped copper vessels called 'pot stills' and at least two, sometimes three, are required of different types for malt whisky. First the wash is distilled to produce an intermediate product called the low wines. These then go into a second still for further distillation. The whisky then passes into a spirit store, ready to fill into barrels. Distillation is the separation of a mixture of chemical compounds through their different boiling points. ...
