A rotary evaporator distillation device is provided that includes a flash vaporization section in which the bulk of solvent is removed. By removing most of the solvent before it enters the evaporating flask, the entire device may be smaller in size but achieve distillation at a pace available only in much larger systems.

A cold trap has multiple interior spaces formed within one unit such that a vacuum pump pulls only dry air and distillate substantially fully or fully condenses and drops out of the bottom of the device. Laminar flow through a side portal is converted into turbulent flow in a cooling region around a conical cold glass or other inert protrusion. The only other portal of the cooling region is a bottom portal such that though there is vacuum suction, vapors only exit through the bottom portal after condensing and falling through an outer section while dry air is pulled upwards to an upper vacuum portal.

A laboratory device, in particular a rotary evaporator, serves for evaporating a substance, preferably under reduced pressure, and comprises an evaporation flask for receiving the substance to be evaporated, a condenser for condensing the evaporated substance and a vapor passage for passing through the evaporated substance, which vapor passage is arranged in a vapor path between the evaporation flask and the condenser. The laboratory device further comprises a detection unit for foam detection, which detection unit is provided outside of the vapor passage and/or the evaporation flask.

The present invention relates to an apparatus that is part of a reusable fuel processing unit that allows the absorption of char contained within vapor that is leaving the reactor including a gear box, gearbox housing, support flange and seal, exhaust housing, exhaust port, connecting flange, screw top split housing, vertical steal housing, three augers with drive shafts on each auger contained within the steel housing, discharge flange, support ring, expansion cart, and cam followers.

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for processing reusable fuel wherein the apparatus comprises a support body and a plurality of augers disposed within the support body. The augers may be configured to rotate against a vapor flow to clean carbon char from vapors comprising condensable and non-condensable hydrocarbons. A drive system may be connected to drive and control the plurality of augers. An exhaust system is connected to the support body. A gearbox housing is connected to the exhaust system, wherein the drive system is accommodated in the gearbox housing. A ventilation system is disposed within the gearbox housing. Additionally, a thermal expansion system may be connected to the support body.

The invention relates to a rotary evaporator comprising a rotary drive and a fastening device attached to the rotary drive and having a receiving space for receiving an evaporator flask rotatable by the rotary drive, wherein the fastening device comprises a connector section, in particular a ring-shaped connector section, at the rotary drive side and a retainer element, in particular a ring-shaped retainer element, at the evaporator flask side that coupled to the connector section and that is rotatable relative to the connector section between a starting position and an end position. The fastening device comprises at least one clamping element that is moved, on the rotation of the retainer element relative to the connector section from the starting position into the end position, from a release position radially inwardly into a holding position in which the respective clamping element projects into the receiving space to hold a flange-shaped connection region of an evaporator flask received in the receiving space of the fastening device in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner and to secure it against a removal from the receiving space.

The invention relates to a rotary evaporator having a rotary drive, having an evaporator flask rotatable about an axis of rotation by the rotary drive, having a vapor tube, and having a glass structure adjoining the vapor tube in the direction of vapor flow, wherein a filter connected upstream of the glass structure, in particular upstream of the vapor tube, is provided for filtering solids from a vapor flow.

The present invention provides a beverage and a dermatological composition comprising water molecules, the water molecules having oxygen atoms of different isotopes, the beverage being enriched in at least one of the oxygen isotopes, the enrichment being in reference to (i) the amount of that oxygen isotope in the water used to produce the beverage or (ii) the amount of that oxygen isotope in ground water, or (iii) Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water. The water molecules may be derived from a plant source, such as a juice, a sap or a tree water.

Provided herein are integrated distillation apparatuses configured as stand-alone fully integrated systems having a reduced footprint. Integrated distillation apparatuses can have a rotary evaporator, a condenser, and an integrated refrigeration system or chiller, as well as an integrated water bath and vacuum pump, all of which can be integrated into a central frame and/or housing assembly. Integrated distillation apparatuses can be configured such that the rotary evaporator is movably attached to a frame structure and configured to be vertically translatable in position, whereas the condenser can be affixed to the structure by an arm extending from the structure and adjacent to the rotary evaporator, and wherein the refrigeration system can be in fluid communication with the condenser.
