Recovery By Distillation

The chemical industry is constantly seeking alternatives to the escalating cost of disposal for its by-products, especially when they contain expensive residual products or raw materials.

​

Recovery of these valuable chemicals can be achieved by separating them from the rest of the waste, either for direct process re-use or conversion into useful intermediates, adding value and preserving energy and resources.

​

The two main facilities Midland Oil can provide are

-The Luwa wipe film evaporator which operates over a wide range of temperature and vacuum conditions, with short contact times for thermally sensitive materials

​

-The Short path distillation unit (SPDU) which can accomodate volumes down to five litres and is ideally suited to the recovery of silicone oils, oxometalic complexes and essential oils.
