Solvent Recovery System

Efficient Solvent Recycling & Reuse Solution

The Solvent Recovery System is an industrial glass-based process system designed for the recovery, purification, and reuse of solvents from contaminated or spent solvent streams. It is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, agrochemical, dye, and specialty chemical industries to reduce solvent loss, operating costs, and environmental impact.

Solvent Recovery System – Overview

Our Solvent Recovery System is engineered around continuous distillation technology, enabling stable operation and consistent solvent purity across a wide capacity range—from laboratory-scale batches to full industrial production.

The system uses a continuous distillation column integrated with reflux control, reboiler heating, and multi-stage condensation to separate clean solvent from non-volatile residues. The design ensures high recovery efficiency, low utility consumption, and minimal downtime, making it suitable for both process recovery and waste minimization.

Process Mode

• Continuous distillation with steady feed operation
• Designed for uniform product quality and stable thermal performance

Major System Components
