What is the Solvent Recycling Machine
solvent recovery machine is a process that extracts solvents from solvent waste, allowing for the reuse of the solvent. The process uses a multi-stage distillation process to separate solvents into its components at lower-than-boiling point temperatures. The spent solvent is fed into the distillation vessel, which is fitted with a thermal oil jacket that is heated by one or more electric heaters. The waste is separated, and the recovered solvent vapors are channeled to an air-cooled condenser, where it cools into its liquid form. The liquid is then directed to the clean solvent collection drums. Solvent recovery machines can recycle and recover most solvents, including mineral spirits, paint thinner, acetone, IPA, MEK, xylene, hexane, various alcohols, chlorinated solvents, microcare solvents, terpenes, and aromatic solvents. Companies can expect to save up to 95% on hauling costs and a minimum of 50% on ongoing solvent purchasing and disposal costs. Solvent recovery machines are environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional waste management practices.
