Solvent Recycling
Solvent recycling is the process of taking used, dirty solvents and cleaning them until the solvent is returned to its pure form or to any acceptable specification. Used solvents are placed in a solvent recycler and “put through a process that fractionates and distills them from the chemicals that made them dirty — those introduced to create a reaction with the solvent.” Aside from the positive environmental impact from solvent recycling, a key benefit is cost reduction. Companies don’t need to buy the same amount of solvent, because it can be recycled, and disposal fees are greatly reduced with less of the dirty solvent discarded. This can be true for any segment of industry that uses solvents, including laboratories, auto body shops, paint shops and paint contractors.

This can be true for any segment of industry that uses solvents, including laboratories, auto body shops, paint shops and paint contractors.
In the solvent recycling market, there are three types of vendors. Some companies like Clean Planet Chemical, can offer recycling technology and provide recycling service, and customers are charged for the recycled solvent. The other type is that companies like IST Pure, mainly take selling solvent recycling machines as their key business. The third type is that companies like Maratek Environmental can both provide service and sell machines.
In this report, “Sales (K MT)” means the waste solvent handling volume of companies providing recycling service. And the "Sales Revenue (Million USD)" and "Price (USD/MT)" means the revenue and handling price for the recycling waste solvent respectively.
