About Recycling and Reclamation Services
Recycling and reclamation services recycle and recover solvents, precious metals, hydrocarbons, and other industrial materials. They may also provide analytical testing, collection, trading, process optimization, research and development, technology and licensing, toll processing, training and consulting, and warehousing and distribution services. In terms of batch size, there are three basic types of recycling and reclamation services: laboratory scale, Pitot scale, and production or field scale. Laboratory or benchtop applications require facilities with a processing capacity of a few pounds (lbs) or gallons (gal). For nanomaterials and specialized biochemical compounds, laboratory-scale quantities are often measured in milligrams (mg). Pitot-scale quantities are larger than laboratory-scale amounts, but smaller than full-scale production facilities. Most Pitot-scale quantities are in the range of several drums or hundreds of pounds of gallons; however, amounts vary with the density and type of the processed material. Production-scale recycling and reclamation services offer processing ranges in the thousands of gallons or pounds.
