The function of the high-pressure buffer tank 2 is to buffer the gas phase vinyl chloride coming from the polymerization kettle 1 so that it can smoothly enter the alkali washing tower 3 near the bottom. The function of the inhibitor heat exchanger 6 is to maintain the inhibitor at a suitable temperature.
[0022] The inhibitor tank 4 contains a mixed solution of weak alkaline inhibitor and water, which enters the top of the alkali washing tower 3 along the feed pipe 22 through the inhibitor circulation pump 5, neutralizes with the gaseous vinyl chloride entering near the bottom of the alkali washing tower 3, and removes acidic impurities in the vinyl chloride.
[0023] The top of the alkali washing tower 3 is connected to a full condenser 7 through a pipeline, the full condenser 7 is connected to a tail condenser 8 through a pipeline, the top of the tail condenser 8 is connected to a vent valve 20 through a pipeline, the bottom of the tail condenser 8 is connected to a decanter 9 through a pipeline, the decanter 9 is connected to the full condenser 7 through a pipeline, the decanter 9 and the full condenser 7 are respectively connected to the vent valve 20 through pipelines; the function of the vent valve 20 is to maintain the pressure balance inside the full condenser 7, the tail condenser 8 and the decanter 9. When the pressure inside the full condenser 7, the tail condenser 8 and the decanter 9 is too high, the vent valve is opened to vent the inert gas inside the full condenser 7, the tail condenser 8 and the decanter 9, and the inert gas enters the next stage of the pressure swing adsorption process.

After standing, it is dehydrated again by density difference and water layering to form crude vinyl chloride, which flows into the buffer tank 12 through the pipeline, and then is pumped to the solid alkali dryer 14 through the refining tower feed pump 13. After drying and dehydration, it flows into the refining tower 15 through the pipeline.
[0029] A polymerization inhibitor adding port 19 is provided on the pipeline between the alkali washing tower 3 and the full condenser 7. After the polymerization inhibitor is added from the polymerization inhibitor adding port 19, the self-polymerization of the vinyl chloride entering the full condenser 7 can be prevented;
[0030] A polymerization inhibitor adding port 19 is provided on the pipeline between the full condenser 7 and the decanter 9. After the polymerization inhibitor is added from the polymerization inhibitor adding port 19, the self-polymerization of the vinyl chloride entering the decanter 9 can be prevented;
[0031] A polymerization inhibitor adding port 19 is provided on the pipeline between the pre-filter 10 and the coalescer 11. After the polymerization inhibitor is added from the polymerization inhibitor adding port 19, the self-polymerization of the vinyl chloride entering the coalescer 11 can be prevented.

[0035] The working principle is:
[0036] The gaseous vinyl chloride remaining after the reaction in the polymerization kettle 1 is recovered to the high-pressure buffer tank 2 by self-pressure, and the pressurized gaseous vinyl chloride in the high-pressure buffer tank 2 enters the alkali washing tower 3; at the same time, the mixed solution of the weak alkaline inhibitor and water in the inhibitor tank 4 enters the top of the alkali washing tower 3 along the feed pipe 22 through the inhibitor circulation pump 5, and is neutralized with the gaseous vinyl chloride entering near the bottom of the alkali washing tower 3 to remove acidic impurities in the vinyl chloride.
[0037] The gaseous vinyl chloride enters the full condenser 7 through a pipeline for the first condensation, the condensed vinyl chloride enters the decanter 9 through a pipeline, the uncondensed gaseous vinyl chloride enters the tail condenser 8 through a pipeline for the second condensation, and the vinyl chloride condensed in the tail condenser 8 enters the decanter 9 through a pipeline.

[0038] After standing in the decanter 9, the liquid vinyl chloride in the upper layer flows into the pre-filter 10 through the pipeline at self-pressure, and impurities such as PVC are filtered out, and then flows into the coalescer 11 through the pipeline at self-pressure.

After drying and dehydration, it flows into the refining tower 15 through the pipeline.
[0039] The liquid vinyl chloride entering the refining tower 15 flows into the reboiler 16 by self-pressure and is heated to become gaseous vinyl chloride. The gaseous vinyl chloride enters the refining tower 15 and flows into the condenser 17 through a pipeline, while the high-boiling substances in the vinyl chloride remain in the reboiler 16 and are removed. The gaseous vinyl chloride flowing into the condenser 17 is condensed and enters the liquid storage tank 18 through a pipeline by self-pressure to be used in the polymerization kettle 1.
[0040] Acidic impurities in vinyl chloride are removed through acid-base neutralization, and the water in the monomer is removed by utilizing the difference in density between water and vinyl chloride monomer. Finally, high-boiling substances in vinyl chloride are removed based on the difference in boiling points between vinyl chloride and high-boiling substances. At the same time, by adding an inhibitor addition port, self-polymerization of the system is effectively avoided, and finally the recovery and refining of vinyl chloride is achieved.
