The process of separation refers to the method or technique used to isolate or extract a specific component from a mixture. This separation process uses the differences in physical or chemical properties between the components to separate them. There are several separation techniques used, such as evaporation, distillation, chromatography, filtration, and centrifugation. The selection of the separation process depends on the types of components present in the mixture and the physical and chemical properties of the components. The separation process plays a vital role in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, food processing, petroleum, and environmental testing.
