Abstract
A low-temperature distillation facility for distilling a mixed fluid into a pure fluid. An aggregation device has an inlet connected to the vapour space of a supercooling chamber, wherein captured mixed fluid from an evaporator enters the supercooling chamber. The aggregation device's outlet is connected to the vapour space of a superheating chamber, wherein captured pure fluid from a condenser can be sprayed into the superheating chamber. An energy source cools the temperature in the supercooling chamber and heats the temperature in the superheating chamber. A heat exchanger is arranged between the exits of the supercooling chamber and of the superheating chamber. During the process, vapour flows from the supercooling chamber via the aggregation device to the superheating chamber.
