HPLC solvent waste containers can release hazardous solvent vapors into the laboratory environment, exposing personnel to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and compromising air quality.
JM Science offers simple, effective solutions to control solvent vapor emissions directly at the source—without the complexity or cost of full waste containment systems.
⚠️ The Problem with Open Waste Containers
Solvent vapors escape into the lab
Operator exposure to hazardous chemicals
Strong odors and poor air quality
Increasing safety and compliance concerns
👉 Even properly capped bottles can vent harmful vapors
🔬 Complete, Modular Solution
1. Smart Caps (Flow Control + Sealing)
Multi-port smart cap system designed to securely manage HPLC solvent lines and minimize vapor release.
Secure connection for tubing lines
Reduces vapor escape from open ports
Compatible with standard lab bottles
Simple installation
2. Activated Carbon Vapor Filters
Activated carbon filter designed to capture solvent vapors and improve laboratory air quality.
Captures solvent vapors at the source
Improves lab air quality
6-month replacement indicator
Threads directly onto waste caps
⚙️ How It Works
Smart caps seal and organize solvent lines
Carbon filters trap VOC vapors before release
Combined system reduces exposure and odors
👉 Simple, effective, and immediately deployable
