Designed to help chemical and environmental engineers in the recycling and reuse of chemicals, this work is a concise guide to the effective recovery of solvents and the efficient operation of plants and processes in which solvents are used. It consolidates a wide range of information on solvent properties, discussing the removal of solvents from air and water, separation and drying techniques and options for disposal. It also examines aspects of safety, good-operating practice, economics and the future of solvent recovery.
