One of the primary techniques for separating the constituent parts of a solution based on their differing thermodynamic properties is short-path distillation. This process involves the selective ...

Research demonstrates how a hydrazone template can replace energy-intensive distillation to produce and isolate gamma-cyclodextrin -- a water-soluble chemical that attracts other molecules and is used ...

Or so said classic American author William Faulkner years ago. The legendary drinker was referring to distilled alcohol, of course, and as his quote notes, distillation has existed since ancient India ...

A process using a light-sensitive chemical can drastically reduce cost and energy consumption to produce gamma-cyclodextrin, a compound that is widely used in manufacturing, according to a Dartmouth ...
