Open Source Lye Purification Apparatus

Basics

• This is a rather simple apparatus that allows for the purification and concentration of lye using recrystilization

Used For

• Production of High Purity of Potassium Hydroxide From Wood Ash Derived Lye

Basic Design

As of now this isn't automated and could rather be described as a pile of chemistry equipment, therefore further development untill otherwise noted will take place [Lye Purification Information|here].
