Distillation Tower for Solvent Recovery

BMS specializes in designing and manufacturing customized distillation towers that guarantee throughput and target purity according to customer process conditions, as well as degassing systems that remove gases from liquids.

By combining our proprietary high-efficiency heat exchanger technology with solvent recovery know-how, we provide energy-saving distillation designs and high-purity refining/concentration plants that drastically reduce operating costs.

High-Efficiency Distillation Tower & Solvent Recycling Technology

Custom Distillation Design (Engineering)

  • We analyze raw material properties and target purity to provide optimized distillation tower design and manufacturing solutions.
  • Through precise process simulation, we derive the theoretical number of stages and propose the most economical solvent recovery equipment specifications.

Energy-Saving Heat Exchanger System

Thermal management is the core of distillation and concentration processes. BMS's heat exchanger technology significantly reduces operating costs compared to conventional steam methods.

  • Waste Heat Recovery: Waste heat from the top of the tower is recovered and reused as a heat source for the reboiler.
  • Carbon Emission Reduction: Perfect condensation technology minimizes gas emissions, meeting VOC recovery environmental regulatory standards.

High Purity Solvent Refining

  • High-purity refining technology that separates minute differences in boiling points achieves electronic material-grade quality.
  • Particularly optimized for solvent recycling and moisture control in the polyimide (PI) binder manufacturing process.

Lab Scale Distillation Unit for Solvent Recovery

Distillation Principle & Separation Process

Distillation is the most essential unit process that performs solvent recovery and refining utilizing the difference in boiling points of mixtures. BMS's distillation tower operates by combining internal structures considering vapor-liquid equilibrium and a high-performance condensation system.

Selection of Tower Type by Process Purpose
  • Tray Tower: A robust multi-stage structure suitable for general-purpose solvent recycling processes requiring large capacity processing.
  • Packed Tower: Excellent for high-purity refining or separating sensitive materials prone to thermal deformation by maximizing the contact area.

This entire process is precisely controlled through reboilers and condensers (heat exchangers) directly designed and manufactured by BMS, ensuring the highest solvent recovery rate.
