The carbon tetrachloride is now distilled off with Jet steam only* The distillation is continued until the vapors in the column reach 100C and the ratio of oil to water in the distillate is nil. Now stop the distillation, allow the oil to settle and separate* Draw off the bottom product layer to drums, saving the last drum (which may contain water} for subsequent separation* Add 2=3 pounds of soda ash to eaeh drum prior to loading to dry the oil. The crude oil is then vacuum distilled according to the Test Authorization TA~C=56304 a DUP050467771 N33006.01 2 Prepared by* Approved by? ,, /g/.. ,*, s^ry^?,Ti , -, .ChemieaX Control Depta Authorised by# /s/ V Ha Hurka Produetion Supt0 Dates H/3Q/56 Besponslble for Test* /a/ Ae V, Willett, Jro m" rrr,piant" Taolu' Supt0 ........W,, S^-JDaaaflBn............. n^, 12/3/56 i /sp DUP050467772 * KAsg55&s3a6 " 3 => mum So Go Fords 0rehm9 Wilmington W8 Lo Williams, Orohem, Wilmington} In Bo Jo Plunkett, Orohem, Wilmington) Turn Jackson Laboratory Library A 0,, Bradley, Administration Building Wo Jo Clem, FTS, "Fcnsol" Colors Area A, Fentin, "Ponso!* Colors Laboratory Ho Bo Gage, Administration Building Vo B0 Hurka, "Pansol" Colors Area (4) Wo Ho Jobling, Plant Tech* Office & Lab0 (2) Do Bo Kirk, Methods & Standards F Knowles, Administration Building j P Jo Wingate, Administration Building) Jn Turn A Vo Willett, Jr, Administration Building DUP050467773
