Desiccator with a 24/29 joint and knobbed lid, which is used for storing moisture-sensitive samples and to dry moist products.
Separated by a sieve plate, a drying agent is placed in the lower part of the desiccator base, which binds the moisture of the substance to be dried, placed on the sieve plate. To accelerate the drying process a vacuum can be connected, as the liquid evaporates faster due to a lower pressure in the desiccator. The vacuum is applied via a shut-off valvue connection. To facilitate loosening of the lid, the surface grinding of the desiccator must be well greased, since after the evacuation the lid is pressed onto the lower part of the desiccator. Duran desiccators are vacuum-resistant

The measurement of Suspended Solids is often required for discharge consent, and values may be reported to the Environment Agency (EA).

Most laboratories will have a vacuum pump. They are widely used across labs of all disciplines for a range of tasks from basic filtrations or evacuating a desiccator right up to use with large equipment such as vacuum ovens or rotary evaporators. The two most common types are rotary vane or diaphragm pumps - but what do these mean and what is the difference? [caption id="attachment_5483" ...
