Horizon Technology, Inc. Announces a New Solvent Recovery System
10 Mar 2015Horizon Technology is pleased to announce the SolventTrapsvoc Solvent Recovery System. The SolventTrapsvoc can recover solvents evaporated during the concentration step prior to injection into the GC or HPLC. The SolventTrapsvoccomes coupled with the DryVap® In-line Drying and Evaporation System for a complete dry-evaporate-trap solvent system, consistent with the workflow and environmentally friendly.
"The system can recover 95% dichloromethane (DCM) evaporated from 6 180-mL samples simultaneously, using vacuum and an auxiliary chiller" says Robert Johnson, Founder and CTO.
Recent enforcement of environmental air regulations has shown laboratories that compliance is a must and anything that can reduce the solvent emitted into the air is a valuable laboratory addition. Additionally, there is less chance of operator exposure to solvent vapors making the workplace safer.
