Product Profile of Solvent Recovery Systems

Solvent Recovery Systems are meant for solvent base cleaners that are used for on-site recycling. Generally these are used in industries where 100 litres of solvent waste is generated per day. Solvent Recovery Systems are manufactured by R.K. Transonic Engineers Pvt. Ltd.

R.K. Transonic Engineers Pvt. Ltd. Is the supplier of industrial cleaning system like ultrasonic cleaners & degreasers, multi stage vapour degreaser, recovery system for solvent base cleaners, jet spray washing machines, oil skimmers, etc. Solvent Recovery Systems use several separation technologies for on-site recycling of contaminated solvents like gravity separation, filtration, bath distillation, fractional distillation, evaporation.

The function and operation of Solvent Recovery Systems include:

• Use of contaminated solvent after initial use for a second cleaning process [downgrading]

• Solvent acquires very less contamination in usage.

• Solvent can be downgraded or used for less demanding cleaning operations.

• Heavily contaminated solvent requires more effort for recycling and also requires the exploration of possibilities for on-site and off-site recycling or reclamation.

• The soil removed through vapour degreasing and cold cleaning is accumulated in the equipment.

• After reuse, the solvent becomes too contaminated and needs to be reclaimed or disposed of via incineration.

• Trichloroethylene in degreasing is capable of cutting solvent waste from 20 drums a month to five drums a month [a 75 percent reduction]. This reduced the virgin solvent consumption by 15 drums a month.

• The solvent waste is pumped into a holding tank.

• This collected waste is redistilled in a period of two weeks for recovering as much solvent as possible, leaving only 5 drums per month requiring off-site disposal.
