The significance of solvent recovery plants has escalated with the growing need to adhere to emission reduction regulations, such as the EU Directive 2010/75 on industrial emissions and integrated pollution prevention and control.

Additionally, these plants play a vital role in ensuring energy efficiency and actively contributing to the circular economy.

We stand ready to recommend the most suitable plant and technology, taking into account various factors such as the type of fluid and solvent used, the size of the client company, and energy consumption.

Our expertise in solvent recovery spans a wide range of production sectors, including flexible packaging, adhesive tapes, coatings, rubber, explosives, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, degreasing, extraction, painting, polyurethanes, and acrylic resins. Some of the frequently employed solvents in these processes include:
• ethyl acetate
• ethyl alcohol
• ketones
• iso-propyl alcohol
• aromatic solvents

Our consulting service is geared towards identifying the best tech solutions available, drawing on specialist expertise and comprehensive assessments of energy and environmental impact.

The processes covered by our team of professionals in term of adsorption on activated carbon and desorption by inert gas are the following:
• Adsorption on activated carbon
• Solvent desorption with inert gas (standard technology or with heat recovery)
• Solvent dehydration by adsorption on molecular sieves (zeolites)
• Regeneration of molecular sieves by inert gas
• Adsorption of solvents in the liquid phase from exhaust gases (stripper or abatement)
