Solvair

Solvair: (Reformulated Rynex) This process uses Propylene Glycol Ether to clean. "Based on a recent study by NTP (National Toxicology Program) on the glycol ether ingredient of a previous formulation for Rynex propylene glycol t-butyl ether (PGtBE), OEHHA has expressed concerns over its toxicity and carcinogenic potential. Of particular concern, was the presence of tumors in mice. Currently, there is limited toxicity data available for DPTB(the newer formulation). It has not undergone formal evaluation for identification as a TAC (toxic air contaminants)".  *March 2008 California EPA Fact Sheet 

This method is not to be confused with CO2 cleaning: Solvair cleans with propylene glycol ether and rinses with CO2.
