Abstract

Solvent recovery is a viable option for manufacturing platforms in the specialty chemical industry Case study shows potential benefits in $ saved and emissions reduced if a recovery scheme can be implemented Much more attractive if recovery equipment (distillation) capacity is available Future work Low-energy separations Alternative solvents Reach out to other plant locations Water reuse evaluation/design and LCA Reverse osmosis / Pervaporation / Adsorption / IX for washwater recovery.
