[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical production, and in particular relates to a polymerization kettle discharge recovery system and a recovery method. Background Art

[0002] In the vinyl chloride polymerization process, the polymerization kettle discharge compression recovery system is an important energy consumption link. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the DCS system controls the gas vinyl chloride recovery operation by detecting the compression recovery main pipe pressure value (PT_R104). When the pressure value is ≤300kPa, the recovery compressor starts, and the vinyl chloride gas is compressed and sent to the primary and secondary cooling systems for condensation recovery until the pressure in the discharge tank drops to 50kPa, at which time the compressor stops.

[0003] However, the existing technology has the following problems:

[0004] 1. The recovery compressor starts too early, runs for too long, and consumes high energy.

[0005] 2. Long-term operation of the compressor increases equipment loss and operating costs.

[0006] 3. The overall energy efficiency of the system is low, and the energy-saving potential of the self-pressure recovery stage cannot be fully utilized.

[0007] Therefore, improvements are urgently needed. Summary of the Invention
