French term or phrase: pompe de soutirage sous vide/recette

Technique initiale de production d'un produit à base de plantes. Nous sommes dans le fond du condenseur...

Une **pompe de soutirage sous vide** permet la vidange du solvant contenu dans la **recette**.

Is there a more specific translation than vacuum pump ? and concerning *recette*, could I use "collector tank" or something similar?
Thanks for your help to get me out of the solvent vapours...

English translation:vacuum pump / solvent tank

Explanation:
or vacuum unit, vacuum system, vacuum extraction system. Pas beaucoup de choix pour ce genre de pompe.
"recette", le premier reflexe est de penser qu'il s'agit du melange dont on va extraire le solvant. Il s'agit en fait du conteneur, de l'appareil. Etant donne la capacite de l'appareil, "tank" est probablement plus approprie que "container". Etant donne que cette cuve est celle qui recupere le solvent, "solvent recovery tank" peut etre utilise. Si c'est la derniere etape de l'extraction, "solvent storage tank" sera mieux.
si tu essayes "solvent extraction procedures", tu obtiendras pas mal de sites dont les deux ci-dessous.

vacuum pumping unit

Explanation:
recette refers to the mixture (sovent, vegetable matter and whatever else there is in it). The idea would be to extract the solvent (separating it from other materials) to reuse it later
