RE(SOLV)® Solvent Recovery System
Recover over 90% of spent solvents with SepPure’s next-gen solvent recovery technology.
Why Solvent Recovery?
Global industries continue the energy and resource-intensive practice of single-use solvents in their manufacturing processes. This practice comes at a significant economic and environmental cost. The traditional approach involves significant utilization of solvents, which are subsequently disposed, often through incineration. This practice leads to:
10% of Global CO₂ Emissions
Billions of Liters of Water Waste
40% of Industrial Energy Use
15% of World’s Energy Use
Transforming Industries Through SepPure’s Solvent Recovery System
Our RE(SOLV)® solution is a heatless, pressure-driven solvent recovery system that transforms the way industries recover and reuse solvents. Using advanced nanofiltration technology, this system recovers over 90% of spent solvents, delivering high-purity output suitable for reuse in industrial processes. By enabling solvent circularity, the system significantly reduces costs associated with raw material procurement, solvent replacement, and waste disposal. Unlike conventional solvent treatment methods such as distillation and incineration, RE(SOLV)® operates with substantially lower energy requirements, helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions and overall environmental impact. Its sustainable design also supports industries in meeting increasingly strict environmental regulations, operational standards, and compliance requirements, while advancing their broader sustainability goals.
The cornerstone of our solution is the industry-leading GreenMem® nanofiltration technology, designed for Organic Solvent Nanofiltration (OSN) applications. Featuring pores smaller than 1 nanometer, these membranes are chemical resistant, and provide precise and rapid separation at the molecular level. They utilize pressure instead of heat, consuming 90% less energy, and offer the potential to yield billions of dollars to industries in savings annually!
Say No to Single-Use Solvents!
From Linear to Circular: Industrial Solvent Recovery Solutions
Traditional Approach: Linear Economy
The conventional method, involving use and disposal of single-use solvents exacerbate resource depletion and environmental pollution. As regulations become more strict and sustainability becomes a priority, the costs of solvent waste management and the environmental impact of solvent disposal are becoming increasingly unsustainable.
Organic Solvents Used in Industrial Applications
Solvent Waste Generated
Solvent Waste Disposed (e.g. incineration)
SepPure’s Approach: Circular Economy
Solvent recovery systems address these issues by significantly reducing waste and the industrial demand for new solvents. Moreover, the recovery process supports a more sustainable and efficient use of resources, aligning with global efforts to transition towards a circular economy.
Waste treatment and solvent recovery are integral to a circular economy. Advanced filtration systems can be applied to filter and thereby reclaim solvents. By applying sustainable recycling methods, industries can create a closed-loop system that enhances resource efficiency and supports sustainable production and manufacturing practices.

Industrial Solvent Recovery in Practice
In conventional manufacturing processes, spent solvents are often classified as waste, leading to significant disposal costs, regulatory compliance requirements, and environmental challenges. Our RE(SOLV)® solvent recovery unit transforms this process by turning waste solvents into valuable, reusable resources. Through advanced recovery technology, solvents are purified and reintegrated into production processes, reducing the need for fresh solvent purchases while significantly lowering waste disposal volumes. This results is a more sustainable and cost-effective operation, where industrial waste solvent recovery becomes a value-generating asset rather than a recurring expense.
