Changing Perspective: Seeing the Value in Your Solvent Waste

For so long, many companies have treated their used solvent and chemicals as waste. But what if you found out that you were simply throwing away something that still had great value? These companies find themselves in a situation where they are paying large amounts of money to throw away what they have long considered to be irrecoverable waste - contributing to  greenhouse gas emissions and other harmful VOC’s in the process of disposal.

 

Waste becomes valuable once you have the knowledge and the tools to recover what was once a clean usable solvent. This solvent waste is simply contaminated, and modern technology has the ability to remove the contaminates. If properly and efficiently done, the solvents can be recovered to their virgin state - and sometimes, depending on the waste, even become cleaner and clearer than the original solvent was in the first place. 

 

Changing the way you view your solvent and chemical hazardous waste can affect your bottom line. You can not only save money on disposal, but by recycling the waste you can spend less on new solvents as well.

 

Saving money isn’t the only impact that recycling your waste has. The environmental damage done by the disposal of hazardous wastes including incineration and filling landfills is immeasurable. A company generating large amounts of hazardous waste, only do dispose of them  is directly contributing to environmental degradation and climate change. By changing how you view your waste, and using equipment like Maratek’s Solvent Saver, you can be a part of the movement to protect our environment and the precious and limited natural resources we have left.
