BOILING; BOILING APPARATUS

Description

B01B covers apparatus and methods for boiling liquids in industrial, laboratory, and chemical processing contexts. This subclass encompasses boiling vessels, kettles, stills, evaporators, and associated heat transfer equipment designed to facilitate phase change from liquid to vapor. The classification includes systems for controlling boiling conditions, such as heating methods, pressure regulation, and vapor separation, but excludes specialized boiling applications integral to distillation (B01D) or specific chemical synthesis processes classified elsewhere.
