Abstract
MR. ELLIOTT'S monograph forms a useful supplement to his “Distillation Principles,” recently noticed in NATURE. The first five chapters consider the operation of the fractionating column with mixtures of two components. Accounts are then given of distillation apparatus, and the cases of ethyl alcohol, petroleum, and coal tar are specially considered. References to recent literature are given.
