Because if you capture it you’re distilling instead of evaporating. I’m just pointing out the difference between the two. If you read further up, you will see that I don’t think it’s a good idea.
Distillation doesn’t have to be of water. Not all impurities are solid. And the evaporated water does go back into the water pool, just with steps we aren’t directly involved in.

Evaporation is a component of distilling, but if you don’t capture the vapor and condense it it’s just evaporation.

Why would you capture it? It’s waste water, evaporation into the atmosphere should be fine.

Has any ody suggesting distillation?
