Industrial Solvent Recyclers

Reduce Solvent Costs, Hazardous Waste, and VOC Emissions

Industrial solvent recyclers are used to distill and reuse contaminated solvents generated from parts cleaning, spray gun washing, paint mixing, and surface preparation processes. By reclaiming usable solvent on site, facilities can significantly reduce hazardous waste disposal costs, lower fresh solvent purchases, and improve overall environmental compliance.

SolventRS offers a range of industrial solvent recycling systems designed for manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, defense, and industrial coating operations. Systems are available in multiple capacities and configurations to support common solvents such as acetone, MEK, mineral spirits, paint thinners, and other compatible cleaning fluids.

How Solvent Recycling Systems Work

Solvent recyclers use controlled distillation to separate reusable solvent from paint solids, coatings, oils, and other contaminants. The recovered solvent can then be reused in parts washers, spray gun cleaners, or other approved cleaning processes—reducing waste volume and operating costs.

Key advantages of on-site solvent recycling include:

• Reduced hazardous waste disposal frequency

• Lower solvent purchasing costs

• Improved shop efficiency and uptime

• Reduced VOC emissions and environmental impact

• More predictable solvent management

Types of Solvent Recyclers Available

SolventRS offers both batch solvent recyclers and other industrial recycling configurations to match different production volumes and operational needs.

Batch Solvent Recyclers

Batch systems process solvent in defined cycles and are commonly used in small to mid-size paint shops and industrial facilities. These systems are cost-effective, reliable, and well-suited for operations with consistent but intermittent solvent waste generation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a solvent recycler used for?

A solvent recycler is used to distill and reuse contaminated solvents generated from cleaning, painting, and coating processes, reducing hazardous waste and solvent purchasing costs.

What solvents can typically be recycled?

Many industrial solvent recyclers support common solvents such as acetone, MEK, mineral spirits, paint thinners, and similar cleaning fluids. Compatibility depends on system design and application.

How do solvent recyclers reduce hazardous waste?

By reclaiming reusable solvent, recyclers reduce the volume of waste solvent that must be shipped off-site for disposal, lowering hazardous waste generation and handling costs.

Are solvent recyclers suitable for industrial and aerospace facilities?

Yes. Solvent recyclers are commonly used in industrial manufacturing, aerospace paint operations, automotive refinishing, and other regulated environments.

Is installation included with solvent recycling systems?

Installation, utilities, ventilation, and site preparation are typically the responsibility of the customer unless otherwise specified.

Is pricing listed on this page?

No. Pricing, lead times, and system configuration details are available upon request to ensure proper application and compliance.
