Scrape-Sided Solvent Recycling System
SCR DistillationThe SCR Series solvent reclamation system, designed for solids content up to 20%, incorporates PRI’s exclusive rotating scraper blade assembly to assure optimum efficiency and consistent clean solvent production throughout the solvent reclamation process. Employee safety and unit productivity are at the heart of the unit’s design. Human involvement is minimal, with a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) monitoring the solvent recycling unit’s operation constantly.
SCR Solvent Recycling System
The SCR solvent distillation system is the most durable, reliable, and safe system on the market. The Scrape-Sided Solvent Recycling System allows you to recover waste solvent, reducing waste and cost.
Maximize Solvent Recovery:
- cut virgin solvent purchase volumes
- reclamation rates as much as 90%
- reduce hazardous waste disposal volume
- units typically pay for themselves in a few months
Reduced Environmental Impact & Increased Safety:
- reduce the risks associated with handling hazardous waste drums
- reduce your facility’s environmental footprint
Durable, reliable, and protected.
PRI solvent recycling systems carry the lowest life-cycle cost in the industry; over 75% of our systems sold in the last 15 years are still in service. PRI offers a 10 year warranty on the solvent distillation vessel, offering the best value and durability in the industry.
With proper care and maintenance, a PRI solvent reclamation system can last for decades. That’s why we’re not afraid to back it up with a 10 year limited warranty. With PRI, you can trust that your solvent distillation system will be running for years to come.
Safe, Easy to Use.
Our solvent reclamation systems are designed for precise control and safe use, processing virtually any flammable or combustible solvent waste, including reactive chemistries such as waste containing nitrocellulose or cross-linking resins.
Our safety discharge package allows operators to easily discharge distillation bottoms. Our Still Bottoms Discharge Safety Kit includes:
- Drum positioning ring for proper alignment
- Drum cart to easily move the drum in and out of position
- Drum-in-place sensor prevents discharge if a drum is not in place
- Drum full sensor acts as a backup to the operator and prevents overfill
- Safety interlocks to the dump mechanism
- Vent opening in the rear of the skirt to allow fumes to be exhausted to another area away from the operator
Long-term, consistent solvent output - scraper blade design.
The SCR solvent recycling system is designed for maximum efficiency. Our patented rotating scraper blade assembly:
- cleans the heat transfer surface of sludge buildup for high efficiency
- all the heat transfer area below the liquid operation level is cleaned
- solids are rolled off the side walls and down into the conical bottom, speeding up the solvent distillation process
- gently agitates and mixes the contents of the solvent distillation vessel

Complete closed-loop solvent recovery.
Our solvent recovery systems are often incorporated into a complete closed-loop solvent management system, utilizing PRI’s specialized and custom-designed Clean and Dirty Solvent Tanks with feeds.
In our process, waste solvent is collected and fed into a distillation unit, where the contaminants can be separated from the reusable solvent. Contaminants are discarded and reusable solvent is automatically fed back to the production process. PRI can engineer solvent management systems to support part cleaning, paint lines or other manufacturing process where solvents are used.
