Correction in the first part is in RED

Wrong:
(water that is made into steam and collected from the droplets of water that falls into the lid).

Rite:
(water that is made into steam and collected from the droplets of water that falls into the Bowl).

PS:

Distillation is an effective process and, what's more important, it can be done with a lot of improvisation.  You can heat water with whatever is at hand: fire, electricity, or whatever.  You can use almost anything that holds water for a boiler, as long as you can direct the steam into a cooler.  A cooler can be a long piece of copper tubing bent into a spiral.  All you need is something that will just cool the steam down. In a worst case scenario, you can distill water with an ordinary household pot and two pot lids. Boil water in a pot covered with the first lid.  After a while, you'll see that the water in the pot vaporizes, and condenses on the lid (this is distilled water). Now replace the lid with the second lid, and turn the first one vertically, so that all condensed water collects at one point, and then pour it into a cup. Meanwhile, more distilled water condenses on the second pot lid, so just repeat the above steps again... until you have a full cup.

Distillation will remove from water almost anything, even heavy metals, poisons, bacteria and viruses. However, it does not remove substances that have boiling points at a lower temperature than water. Some of these substances are oils, petroleum, alcohol and similar substances, which in most cases don't mix with water.   Also, remember that substances removed from water remain in the boiler, so you'll need to clean it up every once in awhile.

Distilled water can be used directly  and does not need to be boiled again. As it is already hot, you can use it to prepare tea, or similar drinks.
