DISTILLATION UNDER REDUCED PRESSURE

This process is used for those liquids which decomposes below their boiling point under reduced pressure, liquids boils at low temperature. Hence, the temperature for decomposition is not reached. Thus, this process is known as vacuum distillation e.g., glycerol can be separated by this method. It is also used for the concentration of sugar cane juice in sugar industry.
