A glove box can become in need of a clean up, and this may not be easily achieved particularly where small items are scattered over the working and storage area.

Process spillage and run-off of materials may need to be recovered for a variety of reasons not least for Health & Safety requirements, for example semi-precious metals.

Glove Box Technology Ltd have developed a vacuum cleaning system for inert gas glove box use that works in much the same manner as a domestic cleaner. That is, it has a flexible vacuum hose with a nozzle leading to a collection bag and filter.

This system of clean up allows for the materials to be retrieved under inert gas for recycling, examination and/or disposal under controlled conditions.

Collected waste or recyclable materials can be placed in containers for transfer through the antechamber. This process is particularly useful where the materials collected are reactive or toxic.
