Waya mauna malata kulongedzandi mtundu wolongedza wokhazikika womwe umagwiritsidwa ntchito munsanja za distillation ndi nsanja zomangira. Amakhala zigawo za malata waya mauna anakonza mu corrugated chitsanzo, kupanga lalikulu pamwamba malo kusamutsidwa misa pakati gasi ndi madzi magawo. Mtundu uwu wa kulongedza wapangidwa kuti upereke njira yolekanitsa kwambiri ndipo nthawi zambiri imagwiritsidwa ntchito pazinthu zomwe zimafuna mphamvu zambiri komanso kutsika kwapansi.

Mapangidwe a malatakulongedza kwa waya kumawonjezera kumtunda ndikulimbikitsa kusakanikirana bwino kwa gasi ndi mitsinje yamadzimadzi, potero kumapangitsa kuti kusamutsa bwino kwambiri. Izi zimabweretsa ntchito yolekanitsa bwino ndikuchepetsa kugwiritsa ntchito mphamvu panthawi yolekanitsa.

Waya mauna malata kulongedzanthawi zambiri amapangidwa ndi zinthu monga chitsulo chosapanga dzimbiri, ndipo amapezeka m'makonzedwe osiyanasiyana kuti agwirizane ndi zofunikira zosiyanasiyana. Amagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri popanga distillation, mayamwidwe ndi kuvula m'mafakitale amafuta, petrochemical, mafuta ndi gasi.
