Impurities Removed by Distillation

This is known as the complete system because the distillation process removes virtually all impurities from water. The beauty of properly equipped distillers is that they are highly efficient at removing nitrates (fertilizer residuals), bacteria, cysts, viruses, sodium, dissolved solids, most organic compounds (solvents, herbicides, and pesticides), heavy metals including lead and arsenic, and radio-nucleides from water. As a ball park figure, it would not be incorrect to state that distillers remove about 99.5 percent of the impurities from raw water.

Distillation does not Remove

While being almost a complete filtration system, distillers can actually allow a very tiny percentage of impurities to pass over into the storage container during distillation. These are the volatile organic contaminants (VOC's) that boil at temperatures below or very close to water (207-218 degrees Fahrenheit). VOC's include some pesticides and solvents. The process of distillation alone is not adequate to remove VOC's. The way to beat this is by having distillers that are vented and/or have carbon post treatment filters (ACF's).
