What can I do with Solvents?

The circular economy prefers the tightest loop that still works. For solvents, start at the top — your best option is Reduce — and only move down the list when the one above no longer applies.

  1. 1

    Reduce

    Best option

    Use water-based alternatives where possible.

  2. 2

    Recover

    Some solvents can be distilled and reused.

  3. 3

    Dispose

    Take to household hazardous waste.
