Steam distillation will probably carry them over as it's not the regular distillation that separates compounds based on their b.p. difference. It
rather carries over all the stuff along with dirt by forming an azeotrope or something like that.
If you can't afford direct distillation of the substance, maybe just try boiling it with activated charcoal for I would say 30mins at least and with
big volume of activated charcoal. I doubt that just cold mixing with the carbon would help. |
