Wash column
A wash column distils the wash straight in the column: the dephlegmator sends part of the vapour back down, so one run gives a stronger distillate than a plain boiler while the taste of the raw material stays.
Unlike a reflux column, it does not chase clean spirit: people choose it for taste.
The layout shows a boiler, a riser with sight glasses, a copper packing section that takes out sulfur, a dephlegmator, an aftercooler and a parrot.
