The recycling and reuse of all chemicals is becoming increasingly important throughout the chemical manufacturing industry. As solvents are widely used in many chemical processes, their recovery is very important in environment control and can easily improve industrial efficiency. This book consolidates all the widely scattered information on solvent properties relevant to recovery, and provides a guide to the effective recovery of solvents and to efficient operation of plants and processes in which they are used. It also considers the aspects of safety, good operating practice and economics as well as the future of solvent recovery.
