Steam/water distillation battery

In a 5-I, crock or battery jar, provided with a powerful mechanical stirrer, are placed 3.5 1. of water and 249 g. (2.16 moles) of thiophosgenc (p. 86) (Note x). To the vigorously Stirred (Note 2) mixture is added slowly 255 g. (2 moles) of /)-chloroaniline during about one-half hour. The stirring is continued for about an additional half-hour. The dark brown oil is separated, washed with 50 cc. of 10 per cent hydrochloric acid, and placed in a flask for steam distillation. 

Distilled water is used in filling medical prescriptions, in batteries, in steam irons, and wherever else 100 per cent chemically pure water is required. 

Double distilled DM water/steam condensate will be used as dilution water. The plant will be started with bought out battery grade acid for circulation... 

Distilled Water and Desalination. Tap water commonly contains dissolved salts that contribute to its overall hardness. These are removed through distillation to provide distilled water for use in automobile batteries and radiators, steam irons, and other applications where pure water is beneficial. Specialized stills fed with continuously flowing tap water are used to prepare distilled water in chemistry laboratories however, deionized water is becoming an increasingly popular and more convenient alternative. Seawater can be similarly distilled to provide potable drinking water. Desalination of seawater is especially important in arid and semi-arid regions of the Middle East, where the abundant sunshine is used in solar distillation facilities.
