pipped off

English to Portuguese Science Petroleum Eng/Sci Crude Oil Refining and Distillation/E-learning
Contexto: Crude oil contains variety of hydrocarbons that have different boiling points. To separate these compounds, the oil is first heated and then fed into a distillation tower. The compounds with a lower boiling point rise up as vapors, while the compounds with a higher boiling point fall downwards as liquids.
The distilled products are then **pipped off** from the different levels of the tower.

Por favor qual a tradução correta para **pipped off** ?

Muito TIA

pipped - with a pippette? Perhaps you are right, it didn't pay attention to the double P- the author may have meant a reference to "taking as with a pippette"

typo **pipped off** typo **pipped off** => **piped off**

A expressão é giria e se refere ao uso de "pipes" - os tubos pelos quais a fração é retirada da torre. Na torre de distilação fracionada, na altura de cada prato há uma saida para aquela mistura que condensa naquela temperatura. Veja uma imagem p entender melhor:
vá em google images e digite "distillation tower" - nas imagens nem sempre aparece um cano pequeno, de 1 ou 2 polegadas que sai da torre no nivel de cada prato.

No contexto da frase poderia ser tambem retirados/extraidos dos diferentes niveis da torre ou to tanque.

Escoado

Sug. Sendo um processo de depuração/destilação, me parece que o "off" tem sentido relevante...
