When the liquid collecting tank 2 When the liquid level reaches the high value of the liquid level interlock, the centrifugal pump 3 starts, and at the same time, the interlock opens the outlet automatic control valve 15 of the outlet pipeline 13 to recycle the condensed water for reuse. When the condensed water drops to the low value of the interlock, the interlock closes the outlet automatic control valve 15, and at the same time, the centrifugal pump 3 stops running, so as to achieve the closed discharge and recycling of the condensed water, thereby eliminating the pressure fluctuation of the gas process pipeline 1, maintaining a stable pressure, and preventing flammable, explosive, toxic and harmful process gases from gathering in the process pipeline, thereby preventing the gathered flammable, explosive, toxic and harmful process gases from being discharged into the atmosphere in large quantities to cause risks such as explosion and environmental pollution.
