A system and method for recovering vapors in industrial washing equipment, wherein a solvent is used to wash various articles within a wash area of the equipment. The system includes a hood supported above the wash area, a motor driven fan mounted within the hood for creating an envelope of negative pressure between the wash area and the hood to draw rising vapors into the hood and to direct the vapors at high velocity against a surface to cause separation of pure solvent liquid droplets from the vapor through impaction, and a coalescer for gathering the separated droplets of pure solvent prior to directing the pure solvent to a holding tank for reuse in washing operations.
