Vacuum distillation is a technique that uses a vacuum to extract analytes from a sample. A condensing column is used in the technique to condense water that may also be present in the sample. A cryogenically cooled trap (cryotrap) is used to condense the compounds of interest. During a vacuum distillation procedure a sample is evacuated to a low pressure vaporizing volatile compounds, including water. The condenser column retains vaporized water and those vaporized compounds that are not condensed in the column are frozen in the cryotrap. 3, record 1, English, - condensation%20column
