Essential oils distillation
I am working on a product insert for a natural (phytocomplex) pain reliever. The insert contains a description and diagram of the equipment used for steam distillation to collect plant-derived essential oils. The diagram shows a large container with an intake valve for the steam, the main tank where the distillation takes place.
Would this just be called "distillation tank" or "distiller" or "distillation container" or something else?
MTIA!
