9700 ProCycler Advantage 3 in 1 Recycler

Recycle Xylene, Alcohol and Formalin all in the same Recycler!

Our Technology

The ProCycler relies on its high efficiency distillation column to remove unwanted contaminants from xylene, alcohol and formalin. For xylene the contaminants are mostly alcohol, biological materials and paraffin. The contaminating alcohol is distilled into a waste container and the pure xylene is distilled into a separate container. Paraffin and biological materials remain behind in the boiler and are removed through a drain. Recycling xylene substitutes follows the same procedure except that xylene substitutes have a higher boiling point then xylene.


Use our Recyclers for:

  • 20 liter (5 gallon) capacity (8 liter model also available)
  • Fully automated solvent recycling process
  • High Purity Recycled Solvents
  • All metal construction
  • Compact size - Smallest footprint

Recycling alcohol presents different challenges then xylene. The main contaminants in alcohol are water, biological material, fat, protein and stain. Purified alcohol is distilled over into a receiver. Water and all the other contaminants are left behind in the boiler and are removed through a drain.

BR also offers xylene/alcohol recyclers as well as formalin recyclers.
