[0039] In the precooler 2, the treated VOC tail gas is heat exchanged, and part of the condensed water vapor and other media enter the waste liquid tank 10. The VOC tail gas from the precooler 2 enters the primary shallow cooler 3, the secondary intercooler 4, and the tertiary deep cooler 5, respectively, and its temperature is reduced to 3°C, -25°C, and -70°C, respectively.
