Fluid mixtures, and mixtures of substances in different phases, that differ in their boiling points, can be separated by distillation. For instance:

Sand and water (solid/water mix) by evaporating (distilling) the water away from the sand.

Alcohol and water (liquid/liquid solution) can be fractionally distilled, collecting the alcohol first and then the water, which boils at a higher temperature.

CO2 and water (gas/liquid solution) can be be fractionally distilled also.

Evaporating sea water (solid/liquid solution) to crystallize the salt, although, this leaves a mixture of salts which can't be separated by normal distillation.
