Solvent Reclaimers recover solvents coming from different production processes for reuse. Solvents are reclaimed by distillation, where the exhausted solvent is brought to the boil, then condensed in a heat exchanger and cooled by forced air ventilation.

This type of operation makes it possible to separate the volatile part (solvent) from the pollutants (pigments, resins, oils, etc) which remain inside the tank.

The distillation residues are removed from the tank at the end of every production cycle, by turning the reclaimer upside down or by using special bags supplied on request.

The cycle is completely automatic, in fact, once the thermostats have been set at the right temperature according to the solvent to be reclaimed, the system stops automatically when all the solvent has evaporated. 1.S.T Reclaimers normally operate at atmospheric pressure, however, when high-boiling or thermolabile solvents are used, a 1.S.T Vacuum generator can be connected to lower the operating temperature considerably.
