[0037] The PBAT continuous production device adopts esterification and continuous polymerization technology, including two stages of esterification reaction and polycondensation reaction. The raw materials of terephthalic acid (PTA), adipic acid (AA), and 1,4-butanediol (BDO) react at a certain temperature and pressure to produce esters and water. At the same time, BDO is cyclized at high temperature to produce tetrahydrofuran (THF) and water.

[0038] The outlet of the esterification gas phase pipe G1 is connected to the suction port of the esterification liquid ring vacuum pump group 3, and the exhaust port of the esterification liquid ring vacuum pump group 3 is connected to the tail gas pipeline; the esterification gas phase separated by the esterification separation tower enters the esterification liquid ring vacuum pump group 3 through the esterification gas phase pipe G1, which contains THF and water, a part of which is cooled and captured by the low-temperature water in the esterification liquid ring vacuum pump group 3, and the non-condensable gas enters the tail gas pipeline through the gas phase port.

[0041] The bottom drainage port of the polycondensation hot well 5 is connected to the inlet of the spray circulation pump 6, the outlet of the spray circulation pump 6 is connected to the hot side inlet of the spray cooler 7, and the hot side outlet of the spray cooler 7 is connected to the top spray port of the scraper spray condenser 4.

[0042] The polycondensation gas phase enters the scraper spray condenser 4 through the polycondensation gas phase pipe G3 and is sprayed and condensed. The spray coolant enters the polycondensation hot well 5 to filter and remove oligomers. The bottom drainage of the polycondensation hot well 5 is pumped out by the spray circulation pump 6, cooled by the spray cooler 7, and returned to the upper part of the scraper spray condenser 4 for circulation spraying to capture the BDO in the polycondensation gas phase. The non-condensable gas carried down by the spray coolant enters the tail gas pipeline through the gas phase port of the polycondensation hot well 5.

[0043] The vacuum spray liquid outlet of the BDO steam jet pump 8 is connected to the inlet of the vacuum liquid sealing tank 9, and the top exhaust port of the vacuum liquid sealing tank 9 is connected to the tail gas pipeline.

[0049] The bottom outlet of the gas-liquid separation tank 13 is connected to the BDO receiving pipe G4 through a liquid seal bend and a BDO discharge regulating valve V2, and the separated liquid enters the BDO receiving pipe G4 for collection and reuse. The opening of the BDO discharge regulating valve V2 is controlled by the lower liquid level of the gas-liquid separation tank 13.
