Put it in a beaker. Use a smaller beaker filled half way with ice and water and place in the larger one. It should be about an inch or two above the mixture. Heat over a Bunsen burner and the naphthalene will deposit on the bottom of smaller beaker.

And in this way, nephthalene be separated from the mixture of KBR and sand.
