Until now, performing these steps typically meant purchasing multiple separate pieces of equipment.
Shale Flora, Aptia's co-founder, shared that the innovative design was developed to fill a current gap: "Conversations with our clients indicated that they needed equipment that could not only recover solvent many times faster than a rotary evaporator, but that also didn't leave 10% or higher residual solvent in the extract like a conventional falling film evaporator. We designed the R60-FFE to meet their need for a mid-size, compact, and affordable solvent recovery system that both rapidly recovers solvent and leaves low residual solvent concentrations in their products."
