Hi Steve!
Sorry it takes a while for me to reply. I am not often on. Yes Dean Stark is great as well. We use a drying agent in the soxhlet and yes it does help. During the Unit Processes semester we teach fractional, Soxhlet, Dean Stark Trap and test results of them using GC, LC, UV/Vis
Hey you deserve the compliment. You helped me when I was having issues learning. Thanks for all of your help!!
