I run 20# solvent recover at least 18 of that and still recover in 20-25 min. Water at 95

We move 30# a minute all day running propaneā¦ Can pretty much double it so long as everything else can keep up with the compressor.

@Zack_illuminated whatās the smallest sized system you offer and what are the specs please?

@The_Lone_Stiller - Our smallest unit is the E4k original and runs around 30k. I would have to draw up a quote for accurate pricing. Itās a more of a traditional system but still features our patent pending technology.
You can get a good look at all of our active models on our website. All the specs are listed there.
GD-1 Solvent Recovery System
What is that? Is it a butane/propane reclamation column?
Edit: Yes, itās a solvent recovery system. I really wish I had some money to throw around because I really like your equipment!

You can generate the same dP just with temperature control thoughā¦
You could if you had total control of thermal efficiencies on your heat transfer surface like a wiped film but a batch process runs on a bell curve which is accelerated by changing dp.

Iāve been using a hybrid system for years. Use the pump to move solvent from tank to material column to collection and also to recover material columns. Use passive to recover solvent from collection.
There is a time and place for both techniques, and they work best when used together.

What if I told you that chemical engineering has come far enough to manage thermal efficiencies at scale with more technologies than wiped-film?
They just havenāt been adapted to our particular industry.

I certainly dont know everything. Or want to. Im sure op would appreciate finally learning how passive is faster than active.
The pistons on a pump physically canāt cycle fast as vapor can flow.

I would add also that as fast as phase changes from liquid to vapor and vise-versa can occur.
Imagine you have 100% thermal efficiency of 1MW (1000kW) for a heater and chiller. There isnāt a piston with enough displacement to maintain the rate of vaporization.

Shit, is my chiller undersized again?
Canāt I use a pump for that
