EXCELOT™: Transforming Waste Management with Advanced Batch Purification

Introduction

Waste management facilities today face mounting regulatory pressure to recover valuable compounds from waste streams, minimize environmental impact, and achieve strict compliance standards. EXCELOT is revolutionizing the sector by delivering a breakthrough batch purification solution that enables exceptional product quality, high recovery rates, and regulatory compliance all within a single, compact modular unit.

The Industrial Challenge

Recovering solvents and by-products from complex waste mixtures is technically demanding. Traditional multi-step purification processes often require several columns and significant energy input, leading to higher costs, increased downtime, and operational complexity. Meeting environmental regulations while maximizing recovery and minimizing waste is a persistent challenge for modern waste management operators.

Technology Description

EXCELOT integrates tailored batch processes and modular design, replacing multiple purification columns with one highly flexible unit. Its advanced technology leverages Sulzer’s proven expertise in extraction and distillation, ensuring seamless integration into existing processes and optimized workflows for waste management applications. The compact footprint allows for easy installation, even in space-limited facilities.

Benefits and Results

• Achieve >99% purity for multiple products in a single batch cycle, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and maximizing the value of recovered materials.

• Minimize capital expenditure (CAPEX) by up to 80% by consolidating equipment and streamlining operations.

• Reduce batch time with rapid startup, transition, and shutdown—less than 15% of the total cycle—boosting productivity and throughput.

  
  

Applications

• Solvent recovery and by-product purification from industrial waste streams.

• VOC removal and contaminant reduction for regulatory compliance.

• Wastewater treatment and resource recovery in environmentally sensitive operations.
