Since they have different boiling points ( that differ by more than 50 degrees C) you can use fractional distillation ( or simple distillation) where you boil one compound out ( leting the vapors condense into a certain container and then collect the condensed vapors of the second compound (fluornene in this case) ... note: that the first vapors are [mostly] comming from the compound with a lower boiling point.
