RECYCLING DEVICE FOR WATER DISTILLATION
FIELD OF INVENTION The present invention generally relates to a recycling device for water distillation and more particularly to a recycling device for water purification and distillation.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The process of distillation is known and is the most effective way to separate pollutant particles such as toxins, bacteria, chemicals or solids from liquids such as tap water to produce a pure liquid. In the past, various water distillation units have been developed to purify tap water in both household and commercial applications. The primary function of these water distillation units is to heat water and condense the resultant vapors in order to separate and remove contaminants from the municipal water supply prior to use.
The distillation process involves heating the water to produce steam, followed by a cooling or condensing of the steam to yield pure water and a by-product that contains all of the contaminants that were separated and removed from the water during the heating process. However, condensation of vapor or steam to purified water in condenser needs a lot of flushing tap water. The distillation process is considered uneconomical due to very large amount of cooling water being flushed out unnecessarily during production of distilled water.
Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a recycling device for water distillation which improves the efficiency of distillation process, and at lower production cost Moreover, the recycling device of present invention provides a compact, economical and for high grade water distillation. Accordingly, the recycling device enables to enhance and allow the water being flushed out to be re-processed, cooled and recycled back into distillation condenser for continuation process.
