AeroTron-Infra
Non Hazmat Solvent for Automated Extraction
Safety Is Our Mission
Switching to AeroTron-Infra as a non-hazmat solvent for automated asphalt extraction in InfraTest Asphalt Analyzer units provides significant advantages, most notably improved safety, reduced regulatory burden, and operational efficiency compared to hazardous alternatives like
TCE or DCM
Key Benefits
Non-Hazmat & Safer Handling
-
AeroTron-Infra is non-flammable and not classified as hazardous waste or a hazardous air pollutant.
-
Users avoid exposure risks associated with solvents like TCE and DCM, enhancing laboratory safety and complying with stricter chemical handling regulations.
Environmental and Regulatory Advantages
-
This solvent features low ozone-depleting and global warming potential, supporting compliance with environmental regulations and green initiatives.
-
Eliminates time-consuming hazardous solvent reporting, record keeping, and regulatory filings required by EPA and OSHA for traditional solvents.
Compatibility and Ease of Use
-
AeroTron-Infra is a drop-in replacement for both TCE and DCM with no need to modify InfraTest Asphalt Analyzer hardware or protocols.
-
Works seamlessly in automated, closed-loop extraction units such as the InfraTest Asphalt Analyzer, maximizing operational safety and solvent recovery.
Cost & Waste Reduction
-
Decreases overall solvent usage per extraction, reducing annual solvent costs.
-
Cuts down on hazardous waste fees and disposal costs since it is not regulated as a hazardous waste.
Standards Compliance
-
Pending ASTM D8159 approval.
-
Directly supports the operational requirements of the InfraTest Asphalt Analyzer, an automated system recognized for accuracy, repeatability, and reduced technician labor.
