Industrial liquid distillation for solvent recovery
Optimize your solvent separation and purification process with advanced distillation technology, ensuring maximum efficiency and minimal waste while meeting stringent purity standards.
Purifies and Reclaims Solvent Mixtures
The Sorpt.X LD Liquid Distillation System from Dürr is designed for robust solvent recovery and purification, addressing the needs of the chemical, pharmaceutical, and electronics industries. Utilizing extractive and azeotropic multicomponent distillation techniques, this system effectively separates and purifies solvent mixtures into high-quality, reusable components. With the capability to handle flows between 500 CFM and 1,000,000 CFM, it can be tailored to meet specific operational requirements, whether in continuous or batch, vacuum, atmospheric, or pressure conditions. Dürr’s pre-assembled skid-mounted systems ensure rapid installation and minimized downtime, while the integration of optimized heat recovery technologies significantly reduces operating costs. Materials such as stainless steel and Hastelloy ensure durability and chemical resistance, making the system compliant with stringent industrial standards. Configurations include steam and air stripping columns to enhance solvent removal efficiency, supporting environmental compliance and reducing hazardous disposal costs. For seamless integration into existing production lines, the system offers PLC-controlled automation with options for remote monitoring and customization to fit specific space constraints and throughput demands.
