A practical handbook on the distillation of alcohol from farm products, including the processes of malting : mashing and mascerating : fermenting and distilling alcohol from grain, beets, potatoes, molasses, etc., with chapters of alcoholometry and the denaturing of alcohol ... . a goose-necked separator, interposed betweenthe wash-heater and the enclosure. This consistsof a series of convoluted tubes contained in atank of cold water. The vapor from the heaterpasses into these convolutions. The heavier vaporsare condensed therein and returned to the heaterfrom which they descend into the column whilethe more volatilized vapors pass over into the finalcondenser. The [/-bends at the bottoms of eachconvolution act like so many low wine chambersin the still shown in Fig. 9 the highly heatedvapor continually bubbling through the condensedvapor in the IJ bend and there becoming greatlyenriched and concentrated. 78 DISTILLATION OF ALCOHOL. This apparatvis, it is claimed, is applicable tothe distillation of grain, molasses or cane juiceand will yield 170 or 180 per cent., or the eqtiiva-1 nt to 85-90 G. L. or 34-36 Cartier. A distinctly modem type of still, though akinto the still shown in Figs. 19 and 20, is the inclinedcolumn of Gillaume, shown in section in Fig. 33. Fig. 33.—Section of Gillaumes Inclined Column Still. and in full view in Fig. 34. Gillaume in devisingthis form of apparatus had particularly in mindthe distillation of thick washes, and the necessityof compelling a circulation of the wash. The bottom of the inclined column .4 is dividedby lateral extending, upwardly projecting plates MODERN DISTILLING APPARATUS. 79
