Columbia University Uses Solvent Recycler to Recycle Acetone, Xylene & Ethanol in LabsRead about how CBG partnered with Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) to save thousands of dollars on solvent purchases and waste disposal fees with effective acetone, xylene and ethanol solvent distillation processes.Read More

Reclaiming Xylene and Ethanol in a Laboratory SettingA histology laboratory was spending in excess of $1,300 monthly to purchase and dispose of 50 gallons of xylene and 85 gallons of ethanol. Learn more about how the lab lowered the cost of its xylene purchases by 95%—and the cost of its ethanol purchases by 90%—by installing a CBG Biotech 5-gallon solvent distillation system.Read More

Acetone Recovery Helps Yale’s Chemistry Lab See Benefits Beyond Solvent SavingsProfessor Christine Dimeglio and her 250 to 300 undergraduate students clean their laboratory glassware using 100% recycled acetone that's been reclaimed by a CBG solvent distillation system. Learn more about how our system is making an important difference in the undergraduate teaching labs at Yale University.Read More

Chemistry Lab Sees a Drastic Reduction in Acetone Waste Solvent Recycling & Waste Solvent Disposal CostsUniversity of California, Merced, Chemistry Professor Jason Hein and his students produce a lot of chemical waste. With the help of a CBG solvent distillation system, Hein found a way to clean up the waste and reuse it, saving his lab thousands of dollars and helping the environment at the same time.Read More

Testimonials

“The dermatopathology lab has been using CBG’s solvent recyclers for many years. We use the recycled solvents in tissue processors and in our linear staining process. It has significantly helped with cost savings and the frequency of purchases of new stock solvents has been greatly diminished since the recycled solvents are used in place of new stock with the same efficiency.”
