New Dry Cleaning Solvent

National Clothesline, July 2006

Dry Cleaning Technologies, a division of Enviro Tech International Inc., has developed a new dry cleaning solvent called DrySolv.

The company used technology it had gained from the solvent and degreaser industry to develop an alternative to perchloroethylene that can be used in an existing PERC machine while cleaning effectively and without environmental concerns.

ETI was started in the early 1990s to develop a cleaning solvent that would clean effectively but be environmentally friendly and safe to use.

Research led to a n-Propyl Bromide (nPB) as a candidate for the desired solvent. After developing an additive to improve solvency, azeotropic performance and inhibit acidity, EnSolv Precisions Cleaning Solvent was patented in 1995.

The company believes its DrySolv patented formula and blend of stabilizers and inhibitors will succeed where others have not because of its patented formula and blend of stabilizers and inhibitors.

Five months of testing at a Pittsburgh, PA, plant have produced good results using it as a drop-in replacement for PERC. Cycle times of 30 minutes have been reported, cleaning quality has been good and hand feel of the garments has been excellent. An IFI Cleaning Performance Test from the plant showed "good" to "excellent" results in all categories except water-soluble soil removal, which was rated "fair." The results were obtained in a 10-minute wash cycle with no moisture addition.

The company is also in the process of testing DrySolv in a hydrocarbon machine at a plant near Chicago, IL.
