Technology and operation from a single source

Industrial solvent recycling
through vacuum distillation.

Ch.Batsch Verfahrenstechnik GmbH develops and operates industrial vacuum distillation systems for recovering contaminated solvents. The SLD combines distillation, sensor-based process control and remote monitoring for paint and flushing processes, particularly in the automotive industry. After initial validation, the recovered solvent is returned directly to production in a fully integrated Closed Loop.

Distillation as a Service

Solvent recycling without your own
capital equipment investment.

Under the operating model, Batsch provides the SLD and assumes responsibility for technical operation, remote monitoring and service. You use the recovery capacity while we remain responsible for the technology.

The SLD Distillation System

Distillate replaces
virgin solvent.

Following initial validation, the SLD reliably separates contaminants and returns the distillate directly to production. Regular sampling monitors quality, while separate solvent handling between recovery and reuse is eliminated.

Modular installation and system planning

From a single module
to a complete system line.

Batsch integrates the system into existing utility, tank and production structures. Modular installation allows distillation capacity to grow with the actual solvent stream.

FAQ

What matters
before you start.

Can recovered purge solvent be reused in paint robots?+

Yes. Direct reuse after initial validation is a prerequisite for Batsch installations. All current Batsch customers return the recovered solvent directly to their production process in a fully integrated Closed Loop.

Do we have to purchase a system?+

No. Under the operating model, Batsch provides the system at the customer site and assumes the agreed technical operation and service responsibilities.

Which recovery rate is realistic?+

Two automotive OEM trial distillations achieved 96 to 98.5 percent. The reliable project value is determined using your actual material.

The Closed Loop starts
