{{Quote|| | {{Quote||Způsob separace kapalin skrze rozdíl v jejich teplotě varu, byl vymyšlen kolem roku 800 předním islámským vědcem, Jabir ibn Hayyan, který transformoval alchymii na chemii, vynalezl mnoho základních procesů a aparát, který používáme dodnes- liquefaction, crystallisation, distillation, purification, oxidisation, evaporation a filtration. Stejně tak objevil sulphuric and nitric kyselinu, vynalezl alembic still, giving the world intense rosewater and other perfumes and alcoholic spirits (although drinking them is haram, or forbidden, in Islam). Ibn Hayyan emphasised systematic experimentation and was the founder of modern chemistry.<ref name="Paul Vallely"></ref>}} | ||
