Biotage® Solvent Recovery SVOC

Using a vacuum pump, the solvent vapors are pulled through a cold condenser coil, where the solvent vapors are chilled and converted back into a liquid form. The solvent then flows by gravity into a round bottom glass flask. When the flask is full a stopcock can be turned to drain the collected solvent into a disposal vessel.

Designed specifically to handle the volume of solvent vapor generated by the DryVap system, the Solvent Recovery SVOC operates at 0°C using a chiller and is capable of condensing and capturing approximately 90 to 95 % of the solvent vapor (95 % for dichloromethane (DCM)).

Features & Benefits

• Enables regulatory compliance for air emissions
• Protects workers from exposure to harmful solvent vapors
• Keeps sensitive lab instruments protected
• Recaptured solvent can be redistilled or sold

When combined with the DryVap System

• Typical solvent volumes of 180 to 200 mL of dichloromethane (DCM) can be evaporated in 50-60 minutes
• The end point can be automatically detected and the process ended when the endpoint is reached
• The sample can be evaporated directly into GC auto sampler vials, eliminating transfer from the evaporation vessel
• Improves the workflow and enables compliance
