What it is: Pope's Hybrid Distillation equipment combines short-duration, high vacuum wiped-film evaporation with efficient column fractionation.

Results: Increased purity, yield and value of your products to levels not previously possible!

Customized Hybrid Fractionating Column systems expertly combine the multi-plate efficiency of fractional columns with the gentle reboiling effect of Wiped-Film Evaporators. This proven Hybrid technology excels in the purification of heat-sensitive materials that are similar in volatility and would be challenging to separate using conventional methods. Available in glass, stainless steel, or alternative alloys, these systems can be configured from lab to pilot plant skid systems, and up to full production process scales. Pope designs and builds these multi-component systems specifically tailored to your application and desired results, ensuring precision and efficiency.
