Distillation is used frequently.
Solar distillation is a process in which water is evaporated using solar energy and then condensed to produce freshwater. It involves using a solar still to collect and purify water by separating it from salts, pollutants, and other contaminants. Solar distillation is a simple and sustainable method for obtaining clean drinking water in areas where access to freshwater is limited.
When crude oil is processed in the fractional distillation column it separates out different by products on the basis of their boiling points. Most of the by- products of the crude oil have a large difference in their boiling points so method of fractional distillation is viable in such a process. Fractional distillation can also be done to separate out water and acetone from a solution.
Water vapor and carbon dioxide are removed during fractional distillation because they have lower boiling points compared to the desired components of the mixture being separated. By removing water vapor and carbon dioxide, it helps to ensure the purity of the desired components collected in the distillate.
In order to separate a mixture of alcohol (ethanol) and water, use a process known as fractional distillation. This technique relies on the principle that the compounds in the mixture have different boiling points. Since ethanol boils at a lower temperature (78.5 degrees C) than water, the alcohol vaporizes while the water remains a liquid. At some point, it will become an azeotropic mixture where the vapor has the same composition as the liquid. A good distillation column will produce an azeotropic mixture of 95 percent alcohol and 5 percent water. This ratio represents the most pure form of ethanol possible with distillation and is widely accepted as an industry standard.
Distillation.
Xe (xenon) is not obtained through the fractional distillation of water. Xenon is a noble gas and is typically obtained through the fractional distillation of liquid air. Water can be fractionally distilled to obtain gases like hydrogen and oxygen, and neon can also be obtained through fractional distillation processes.

fractional distillation?
Both. But filtration is more common.
Fractional distillation:1 solution with two miscible liquids(liquids that mix with each other)Example:Ethanol+water.
Distillation is a method to obtain drinking water but in the past necessary installations were not known.
By distillation. One can take advantage of the fact that both alcohol and water boils at different temperatures. A fractional distillation apparatus should be used.

Fractional distillation is appropriate to separate ethanol and water because they have different boiling points: ethanol at 78.4°C and water at 100°C. During fractional distillation, the mixture is heated to a temperature in between these boiling points, allowing the ethanol to vaporize but not the water. The vapor is then condensed and collected, resulting in separate ethanol and water fractions.
You can separate water from alcohol by fractional distillation. By heating the mixture to the right temperature, the alcohol will evaporate and leave the water behind. However, alcohols and water are quite difficult to separate completely, and the separation will not be 100% by this method.
Desalination plants convert sea water into drinking water by distillation.
