[Illustration: FIG. 32.--Continuous Distilling Apparatus with Goose Separator. (_To face page 76_)] Fig. 32 illustrates another form of distilling apparatus manufactured by the same company, which is practically the same as the apparatus previously described except that it is provided with a "goose-necked" separator, interposed between the wash-heater and the enclosure. This consists of a series of convoluted tubes contained in a tank of cold water. The vapor from the heater passes into these convolutions. The heavier vapors are condensed therein and returned to the heater from which they descend into the column while the more volatilized vapors pass over into the final condenser. The _U_-bends at the bottoms of each convolution act like so many low wine chambers in the still shown in Fig. 9 the highly heated vapor continually bubbling through the condensed vapor in the _U_ bend and there becoming greatly enriched and concentrated. This apparatus, it is claimed, is applicable to the distillation of grain, molasses or cane juice and will yield 170 or 180 per cent., or the equivalent to 85-90 G. L. or 34-36 Cartier. [Illustration: FIG. 33.--Section of Gillaume's Inclined Column Still.] A distinctly modern type of still, though akin to the still shown in Figs. 19 and 20, is the inclined column of Gillaume, shown in section in Fig. 33 and in full view in Fig. 34. Gillaume in devising this form of apparatus had particularly in mind the distillation of thick washes, and the necessity of compelling a circulation of the wash. [Illustration: FIG. 34.--Gillaume's Inclined Column Still.] The bottom of the inclined column _A_ is divided by lateral extending, upwardly projecting plates or partitions _a_ forming a continuous channel through which the wash passes from side to side and from top to bottom and then out through a regulator. The upper plate of the column has downwardly projecting partitions _b_ which with the partitions _a_ form a series of traps. The steam enters at the bottom of the column into a reservoir, and in order to pass upward is forced beneath each partition _b_ and through the washer contained in the channels of the bottom. When it reaches the upper end of the column it has passed through a continuous series of wash-filled compartments containing a constantly moving current of wash. The vapors from the top of the column pass off to the wash heater or to a concentrator.
