In column chromatography, the stationary phase, a solid adsorbent, is placed in a vertical glass (usually) column and the mobile phase, a liquid, is added to the top and flows down through the column (by either gravity or external pressure).

Of the three columns pictured, only the column on the right is actually manufactured as a chromatography column. Note the stopcock at the bottom of the column. This is to control the flow of solvent through the column, important for gravity column chromatography applications.

Column chromatography is frequently used by organic chemists to purify liquids (and solids.) An impure sample is loaded onto a column of adsorbant, such as silica gel or alumina. An organic solvent or a mixture of solvents (the eluent) flows down through the column.

Column chromatography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Column chromatography in chemistry is a method used to purify individual chemical compounds from mixtures of compounds. It is often used for preparative applications on scales from micrograms up to k...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Column_chromatography
Column chromatography is one of the most useful methods for the separation and purification of both solids and liquids when carrying out small-scale experiments. Column chromatography is another solid-liquid technique in which the two phases are a solid (stationary phase) and a liquid (moving phase).

A simple description of how column chromatography works. ... This page shows how the same principles used in thin layer chromatography can be applied on a larger scale to separate mixtures in column chromatography. Column chromatography is often used to purify compounds made in the lab.

Chromatography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chromatography (from Greek χρώμα: chroma , color and γραφειν: graphein to write) is the collective term for a set of laboratory techniques for the separation of mixtures. It involves passing a mi...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatography
Column chromatography involves the separation of compounds by the same mechanism as other chromatographic techniques, i.e. differences in partitioning between mobile and stationary phases. (See "Chromatography" in Pavia).

Using a swan-neck lamp a bright beam of light is directed at the leaf extract and at the samples eluted from chromatography column. Leaf extract and the samples containing chlorophyll or pheophytin produce a reddish glow.
