. Distillation is the process of separating the components or substances from a liquid mixture by using selective boiling and condensation method.
In this TACtivity, we create our own distillation set-up using plastic bottles and a straw to extract propanol mixed with water.

This seems like a bad idea with plastic instruments but I like the design and I’m gonna apply it to glass bottles
These activities are designed with easily available materials to make them affordable to all. Thank you for watching the video, Please check out ThinkTac Products here www.thinktac.com/collections/thinktac-annual-programmes
this has helped me to be able to finish a school project without needing a motor. Thanks very much

This is so intelligent idea. This has helped me to understand the distillation part and I will also try it at my home. Thank you so much for understanding me.
Please make more videos about filtration at your home for understanding more students.

Agreed his application has made it so simple that a child could do it easily...
Same
I have a question. Won't the chemicals used in making the plastic bottles contaminate the product of this distillation process?
Hopefully not... The temperatures here are well below 100C, and much lower than the melting temp of the plastic, and so there should not be any leaching of the plastic material into the mixture being distilled...
Okay we all know why we are here
To design an experiment for your 10 Yr old school science students ??
To make our own custom fragrance from distilled liquids?

For facial steaming.
To make bank sellin to da homies!
Thanks to this ,it has anable me to finish my project for science ❤❤❤
Great idea! Been looking for a way to make my own oils from flowers, since I don't own a still, I'm happy I saw this.
But I got a question....the plastic bottle that sits in boiling water, how does it not melt?
Boiling water (~100C) is not enough to melt a plastic bottle. An open flame (several hundred degrees celsius) will melt it. Plastic used in plastic bottles has a melting point of about 250C.
Thanks! I'm trying to extract dichloromethane from paint remover, so hopefully this helps!
if i were you id use a masonjar with a metal straw stuck in the top instead of this bottle idea, the bottle is nice for simple alcohols but definitely not paint thinner, that is just not, youd need to know every single detail of the plastic incase it reacts with anything in the paint thinner, especially the DCM, i wouldnt use this bottle idea unless i needed simply what is decribed or if you wanted to brew stronger alcohol at a party as a "cool chemistry trick", but thats about it, even water could start to warp the plastic at high enough temperatures and if the plastic isnt strong enough, and when things get warped bonds are being broken stretched whatever, chemicals are being released into your product making it impure.

I got to admit that was pretty cool
Great, thanks!
I was wondering if I can use this in extracting plants
Just use the tip of a hot glue gun for the holes. Much easier. You then use fishtank silicone or rtv gasket sealer. I would also use glass jars instead of plastic which can leach chemicals into your oils. Other that that, I live it!!
Can you share your step up pic ?
Cant you melt a straw sized hole with a cone tipped wood burner?
My mom did it before
thanks for the project ideas
Thank you you just helped me save 100$
This works?
@@assumeformlessness2111 it does
I guess I just don't get it. What is the ingredient propranolol for and was the water added to the 3rd bottle just to weigh it down? I was looking up how to get essential oils from plants and found this.
Yes, by '3rd bottle' if you mean the standing 1L bottle, then yes, water is poured in it so that it's weighed down and can act as some sort of a stand. The bottle through which the straw is placed is also filled with (cold) water, and that's to help cool down the distillate faster so that it condenses faster.
can this be used for the synthesis of GABA to GHB ?
Im thinking about making moonshine mainly but if it has other purposes that would be awsome
GABA to GHB is done via the Sandmeyer Process. I doubt that's a distillation process. In any case, these activities are for children to observe classic concepts in science, not to conduct dangerous or illegal experiments. Making moonshine doesn't sound like a good plan either. Please restrict the use of these activities for educational purposes only; we'll be able to answer your queries in that case.
definitely not, youd need to replace allll plastic with metal and or glass.
I'm just wondering...would it be okay to add metal bb size pellets into a dry distillation ? Would it make things start alittle faster or would it just contaminate ?
I am not sure, sir, about dry distillation, where I'm assuming you are trying to distil solids, requiring much higher temperatures etc. Are you asking if metal pellets can by dry distilled? If they are metal, then by definition they are made of a single material (the specific metal element), so there's nothing to separate/distil it from. If you meant something else, please let me know.
In our simple TACtivity, meant for schoolchildren, we are performing a classic liquid/solution distillation, which can separate say salt from water (and you preserve the water), or as shown here, propanol (more volatile than water) from water.
Can this be used for plant leaves to extract essential oil?
yes but if you are working with small amount of "material" then you have alot of loss like inside the straw and everywhere else
Yess !
Yes, that would be a lovely thing to try out, with this home distillation set-up! Distillation is one of the 3 methods of preparing essential oils, and the most complicated one. So I don't know if our set-up is robust enough to be successful in making essential oils, but one will know only if one tries. So, good idea! If you try it, let us know how it turned out!
@@71001L I am also wanting to make my own perfume, I didn't know about plastic bottle in boiling water, I thought it may melt...can u please explain about the straw?
See this is new for me so there's alot I don't know
Haz uno con método soxhlet por favor 🙏🏻
Amazing
Very well displayed good job. But the plastic is not good.. and this is for my science project and the teacher are strictly not allowed plastic. Is there any other way I can do?
Since one likes to see the distillation, a transparent container is recommended. That can be glass. But you can't bend and break glass. Hence plastic. All the plastic used here is trash; stuff that would generally be thrown. Better to use it for an experiment that to throw it in the trash.
If one has no intention of seeing the droplets etc, any suitably shaped metal or ceramic utensils/containers can also be used
Amazing video
I tried this method and after the first smell of dark smoke I was super excited, but thins got thick when my kitchen caught on fire. but I was so worried about the contamination of the glue and the methods on how to fill the bottles up with a cap full of water.....it did not dawn on me that the window was open. year don't try this method at home when you are totally and completely HIGH!
You know, there are certain accidents where you may be drunk and on drugs, but it's gonna happen anyway whether you are or you're not
Thanks ☺️ dis help me a lot literally
💪👍
how long can it take to destill for example 1L 20% wine? do i need to Change the water ?
Wine has 12% alcohol, on average. So 1 litre, which is 20% wine, will have about 2.4% alcohol. Distilling such a small amount may be a challenge, but we'd love to know if you were successful. Should take 15-20 min or so, but we'd like to hear from you what you observed.
please answer me. Is this also applicable when extracting essential oils?
Essential oils can also be extracted the same way, using distillation. But because essential oils may be embedded in substances that have more than 2 liquids, one may need to use fractional distillation methods sometimes...
Can we prepare essential oils in this way?
Yes, that would be a lovely thing to try out, with this home distillation set-up! Distillation is one of the 3 methods of preparing essential oils, and the most complicated one. So I don't know if our set-up is robust enough to be successful in making essential oils, but one will know only if one tries. So, good idea! If you try it, let us know how it turned out!
Can I distill IPA and wax mixture?
Never tried it. Please do, and let us know the results?
just add salt to propanol and its faster way to get rid water ;)
what is propanol?
@@catiponjericon.8957 alchohol
can you give more details
Can we make the essential oil with this kit???
Should be able to; if you have the mixed solution to distil
Can I distill ethanol with this?
Yes, any liquid whose boiling point is less than that of water's.
Can I use this when I get the Pomelo peel oil?
You can surely try! Let us know the results...
i tried to distill our bio-ethanol but it won't work, please help me, this is for our school research and we cant borrow any lab in other school, even our own lab we cant use it
Can I use cans instead of plastic bottles?
Yes, but you won't be able to see the droplets etc from outside
thank you for the response 😊
can we use this for extracting natural oil
You would need more complex fractional distillation setups to extract natural/essential oils from their sources. But you can start with this and see how far you get!
Can I use it to separate water and salt?
Yes. Although that doesn't need such an elaborate set-up. Evaporation is good enough, unless you want to collect the water separately
can i use gas stove for boiling?
yes
thanks for the demo, but so much seems unnecessary and proponol??? I looked it up natural stuff in aloe. why would you even need that? why not just use the condensation directly and let it drip into the receiving container. Why an extra step (middle bottle)?
Propanol is being distilled out, since it is more volatile than water. That's what distillation means: having 2 liquids of different boiling points, and separating them. It is NOT water that we are condensing and collecting, but the propanol or acetone as the case might be. The middle bottle is there just as support, to keep the condensing bottle in place. You may use any other support instead. We have a neater setup here that you can try: www.tactivity.in/CP35/EN/V12
Watching him put plastic on a stove infuriates me kids will watch and replicate this ending up burning the house down
Thanks
Also I keep reading to use glass instead but how can you cut a hole in glass.
Glass set-ups have an airtight cork placed on top, through which holes etc are made. That's the standard lab equipment
Which solution is required for distalled water
Distilled water is the pure water part that's extracted from any mixture of liquids or solutions. In miscible liquids, the more volatile liquid gets distilled and condensed first. In a solution, the solvent gets distilled, while the solute remains in the container
I used an old can with tin foil on top of it instead of the bottle with the green cap
Genial
Avec la chaleur les bouteilles en plastique vont fondre.!!
What is propanol?
It is an alcohol. Most commonly used in your hand sanitisers etc. Also called isopropyl alcohol
ah yes my chemicals disolve plastic😂
Can i distill nitric acid inside?
not only no but hell no! unless you want a nasty acid burn or permanent lung damage or both!
or keep being a dumbass and go ahead and try!
I wouldn't recommend that
Get proper glassware and safety equipment if you intend on distilling nitric acid haha!
All ThinkTac TACtivities and materials are curated such that they are safe to handle, and can be done in a home/classroom setting without additional safety restrictions. So we wouldn't recommend the use of strong acids, bases and other possibly damaging chemicals for our TACtivities

Distillation in pet bottle is insane. It is much better tu use glass jar. Best would be laboratory equipment.

Better not to use plastic. Plastic has way too low a melting point. Use a glass straw too, not a plastic one, it will work way better. Be EXTREMELY careful heating glass bottles as heat can cause problems with the glass causing it to weaken and smash. There are ways around this, if you're curious look them up.

do not use metal tech distillation unit to dangers
Deffently is scarey, but I carnt get around why I like to use a milo tin more then a moon shine distill it just dosnt add up you'd think the moon shine distillar would be more safe for dry distillation but some reason i prefer the milo tin when doing dry distillation
this video is directed at kids probably under the age of 13, its viewers and commentors are people looking to distill paint thinner to extract the dichloromethane which is a good solvent, other people trying to make moonshine?!? if anyone knows anything about chemistry, you can barely keep water in a damn plastic bottle without it absorbing BPA's and things that cause health problems, let alone distilling crude alcohol in plastic?!? i love drugs, i love chemistry, they go hand in hand, ive wanted a way to get my hands on some pure DCM, BUT IM NOT TRYING TO BURN MY FUCKING HOUSE DOWN FOR IT!?!? im 17 i know im not the brightest blub in the box actually i am, but really come on? its fucking plastic? take a lighter to it and it melts and gets stuck to your hand and now you have to wear plastic as your skin for a week or so till it comes off and leaves a burn/hole, you cant distill hot alcohols even water, its going to warp the plastic, alcohol would actually be better than water because of the boiling temperature, but you cant, i mean you can and people definitely will by showing of this video but you just shouldnt? its not cautious, isopropanol is fine, ethanol is fine, methanol maybe even fine, acetone probably not depending on the type of plastic, DCM from paint thinner, probably most definitely not it doesnt even sound like something that should be done outside of proper labware and somewhere where it wont catch fire easily, i just cant emphesize it enough, everyone in these comments is the reason drug prohibition exists and its truly sad.

What nonsence. Plastic bottle in boiling water ?. No plastic or rubber things to be used for dstillation purpose.
Yeah
I think it will melt because of heat
Thought that, too 🤔
It's in a water bath, which has a maximum temp of 100C. That's not enough to melt regular plastic bottle plastic. It may deform a bit, but won't melt. If it's directly put on a heating element, it will melt. Hence we place it in a water bath. And we are distilling a material that has a lower boiling point than water, so the water bath needs to be only 70-80C.
If you try this experiment, you'll know it works safely.
How about the temperature?
Can I use candle as a heat source
It will be difficult to use double boiling method using a candle.
Why have we put a bottle under the condensing unit?
To support that bottle. Thank you for watching the video, Please check out ThinkTac Products here www.thinktac.com/collections/thinktac-annual-programmes
