Pick out the wrong statement about distillation operation__________________?

A. Distillation under vacuum is a substitute for steam distillation
B. In differential (simple) distillation, the vapour is removed as soon as it is formed without appreciable condensation
C. In flash (equilibrium) distillation, a definite fraction of liquid is vaporised in such a way that the evolved vapour & residual liquids are in equilibrium with each other
D. Flash distillation, differential distillation & steam distillation are all continuous distillation processes
