Features which a modern, well designed distillation and solvent recovery system should contain in order to permit safe and profitable operation will be discussed. The technology has advanced rapidly during the past 10 years in the development of more efficient and profitable distillation and solvent recovery systems. These systems operate with less down‐time and far more efficiency than they did 20 years ago. The application of good chemical engineering practice, together with a long background of plant operations, will permit continued improvements of these systems in the future. To permit continuous development in this area it is essential that design and operating companies have a two‐way interchange of information.
