Hi
I've been wrestling with this one for a while and I don't see an easy
answer.
I think:
a vacuum pump is not what you need, your condenser needs to empty
into a well, and since this needs to be a closed system so the alcohol
doesent go evaporating off into the atmosphere. You need to maintain a
level in the well with a positive displacement pump that is driven by a
control circuit which maintains a prescribed Temperature/vacuum
pressure at the top of the reactor/condenser,
