Solvent recovery is an important process as vaporous solvent emissions degrade slowly in the atmosphere and represent a potential risk to man and the environment. International and local clean air regulations have therefore been passed which lay down maximum emission limits. While environmental factors are naturally a crucial consideration behind such measures, they also bring financial benefits through the recovery and recycling of valuable materials.

Membrane technology is ideal for the solvent recovery process due to their high efficiency levels, long service life, where no regeneration is necessary, and their compact design. The recovered substances are neither modified nor contaminated and are suitable for all concentration ranges, and their compact design.
