Lymph returns to the circulatory system by entering large veins near the heart.
Lymph Vessels return intercellular fluid to the veins.
Blood vessels come in three types: arterial, capillary, venous; and a fourth is the unidirectional flow of the lymphatic fluid in the lymph vessels.
The lymphatic system removes excess fluid from tissues. The lymph system is a network of organs, lymph nodes, lymph ducts, and lymph vessels that make and move lymph from tissues to the bloodstream. The lymph system is a major part of the body's immune system.

The thoracic duct serves as a duct which lymph drains into which then drains into the venous system before returning to the heart to be cleansed and recirculated.
I know one place they are used in particular is the lymphatic system where they maintain the flow of lymph throughout the body.They are also used in the circulatory system where they aid in the return of blood to the heart.

The lymphatic system is a one way system that begins in the tissues and ends when it reaches the blood vessels. the system helps the body maintain homeostasis by collecting accumulated tissue fluid around cells and returning it to blood circulation. the lymphatics play an active part in the immune defenses by filtering out and destroying foreign substances and microorganisms; and also help in digestion by absorbing fats from the small intestine.
The lymph system is similar to the venous system in the body. There are series of one way valves that keep the fluid moving in one direction. As you move or flex you muscles it presses down on the lymph vessels and the fluid moves though the one way valves.
A collection of organs and vessels that return lymph, extra fluid, to the blood stream.
