[0031] See also Figure 1 A first metering pump interface 5 is installed on one side of the lower end of the distillation tower 3, and a second metering pump interface 6 is installed on one side of the upper end of the distillation tower 3. The first metering pump interface 5 and the second metering pump interface 6 are used to supply raw materials and water vapor respectively. The use of metering pumps can keep the feed components constant. The device regulates the discharge of the distillation tower through the pressure drop of the entire tower. The pressure sensor 805 detects the pressure in the terminal membrane separator 8, and the feedback signal can control the pressure of the distillation tower kettle and the heating amount of the kettle, thereby regulating the pressure drop and controlling the distillation effect.

[0032] See also Figure 4 Membrane wire positioning plates 801 are installed at the upper and lower ends of the membrane separator 8, membrane wires 802 are installed between the membrane wire positioning plates 801, and a plurality of membrane wires 802 are arranged. A finished product outlet 803 is arranged on one side of the membrane separator 8, and a separation liquid outlet 804 is arranged at the lower end of the membrane separator 8. When the distilled gas enters the membrane separator 8, due to the different molecular sizes of the two substances inside the distilled gas, the smaller molecular substances can be adsorbed and penetrated by the membrane wires 802 under the action of the pressure difference, and then flow to the lower end of the membrane separator 8 and be discharged along the separation liquid outlet 804, while the large molecular substances are isolated by the membrane wires 802 and discharged from the finished product outlet 803, thereby achieving separation.

[0033] See also Figure 3 The distillation tower 3 is internally provided with a tower plate 18, wherein a plurality of tower plates 18 are provided, and adjacent tower plates 18 are staggered and oppositely arranged, and a plurality of through holes are provided in the tower plate 18 for deflecting the raw material and the reflux liquid while transferring heat between them and the steam.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, the metering pump passes the raw material and water vapor into the distillation tower 3 from the first metering pump interface 5 and the second metering pump interface 6 respectively. The feed composition is kept constant by the metering pump. During the process, the steam generator supplies steam to the jacket 20 of the reboiler 19 to reboil the liquid at the bottom of the tower. The water vapor and the reboiler 19 work together to control the top temperature of the tower, so that the unreacted raw materials are distilled azeotropically. The distilled mixed steam directly enters the membrane separator 8 through the steam discharge pipe 7. When the distilled gas enters the membrane separator 8, due to the different molecular sizes of the two substances in the distilled gas, the smaller molecular substance can be separated under the pressure difference. The membrane filaments 802 absorb and permeate, and then flow to the lower end of the membrane separator 8 and are discharged along the separation liquid outlet 804, while the macromolecular substances are isolated by the membrane filaments 802 and discharged from the finished product outlet 803, thereby achieving separation. A pressure sensor 805 is installed on the membrane separator 8. When it is detected that the internal pressure is too high, in order to avoid damage to the inner membrane, the pressure sensor 805 feeds back a signal to the controller, drives the electronically controlled three-way valve 10 to adjust to the flow channel of the diverter pipe 9, separates part of the steam into the condenser 11, and liquefies it and flows into the reflux tank 12, and is returned to the tower through the reflux pump 15. At the same time, the metering pump reduces the supply amount to achieve the purpose of regulating the pressure drop and controlling the distillation effect.
