A vapor compressor for use with a distillation system and includes a housing defining an interior volume. The housing includes an inlet and outlet. A shaft has first and second ends and extends along a longitudinal axis of the housing. A first compression stage includes a first impeller and a first stator, the first impeller including a first plurality of impeller blades having a first dimension. The first stator includes a first plurality of stator blades having a second dimension. A second compression stage includes a second impeller and a second stator, the second impeller including a second plurality of impeller blades having a third dimension. The second stator includes a second plurality of stator blades having a fourth dimension. The first and third dimensions are measured along corresponding portions of the first and second plurality of impeller blades, and the first dimension is greater than the third dimension.
