This method mimics the natural water cycle, where evaporation (boiling) separates water from impurities and condensation (on ...

Distillation relies on evaporation to purify water ... and other nuisance particles such as iron and hardness from a con- taminated water supply. The boiling process also kills microorganisms such as ...

Evaporation is the removal of a solvent, usually water, by its vaporization from relatively nonvolatile ... is reduced if sensible heat is to be provided to bring the feed to its boiling point. The ...

For example, water boils at 100 °C (212 °F ... Liquids may change to a vapor at temperatures below their boiling points through the process of evaporation. Evaporation is a surface phenomenon in which ...

If you heat water slowly at a lower temperature than boiling point, then the water on the surface will evaporate. For example the Sun may heat up water in a puddle and it will slowly evaporate.
