Description

The esterification reactor has the function of completing esterification and polycondensation at the same time. The esterification reactor is a device used for esterification reaction, which is usually composed of a reactor body, a stirring device, a heating system, a cooling system, a sealing device, a transmission device, etc. The methanol recovery device of the esterification reactor is a device for recovering methanol in the esterification reaction.

When recovering methanol, the interior of the esterification reactor is heated by the esterification reactor to evaporate methanol, and the evaporated methanol flows into the connecting pipe through the output pipe and then is diverted through multiple branch pipes. The large gear rotates to drive the connecting pipe to rotate, and at the same time, the circulating pump is started, and the circulating pump conveys cooling water to the conveying pipe and enters the condensation barrel.

[0035] By providing the fan 510, under the action of the second motor 59, the cooling water in the water tank 56 can be air-cooled, thereby reducing its temperature, thereby avoiding the problem of increased cooling water temperature and reduced condensation effect.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, the filter structure 6 includes a filter plate 61 , and the filter plate 61 is fixedly connected to the top of the air inlet pipe 53 .

During the cooling water reflux process, the second motor 59 is started, thereby driving the fan 510 to rotate, thereby cooling the cooling water returning from the water tank 56.
