Antimony trioxide and glycolic acid can be sucked and added through the suction pipe, reducing labor costs.

[0007] In the above scheme: the condensation medium is ice cubes, and the material is simple and easy to obtain.

[0008] In the above scheme: the outer wall of the U-shaped tube is wrapped with a heat-insulating material to prevent water vapor from condensing in the U-shaped tube and then flowing back into the reactor.
