In industrial scale processes, huge quantity of solvents is used. The inefficiency in the recovery of the solvent causes problems with the economic viability of the process. How can one avoid the solvent loss at industrial scale?
It depends on the type of the process and how large the process is. Based on that, percentage loss of solvent can be calculated and can be minimized.
I recommend to utilize ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents instead of volatile one.
The use of activated carbon for solvent recovery is well established for processes such as industrial-scale paint shops and printing works . When the carbon adsorbent eventually becomes fouled with contaminants which do not desorb during the normal regeneration cycle, it may be interesting to consider reactivation using "facilitated oxidation" in stead of conventional thermal reactivation.

Dear Vinod Amritkar ,
I Appreciate your interest,
Use of solid phase reactions you can able to reduce the solvents in any organic and long step reactions., I Don't know what is your working area, if it's organic reaction means you can able to use solid phase organic synthesis
By using this you will reduce >50%% of solvents. if you want more details regarding to this large scale solid phase synthesis and support contact me back.
Its possible and quiet simple even multiple reaction step..
Hope you got.,
Good Luck And Regards
R.Selva........
You can carryout the reaction as as as at low temperature & under reflux using cooling tower
Solid phase reactions means it will be helpful for you,
based on your reaction nature need to find method.
