[0002] As shown in the instruction manual appendix Figure 1 As shown: The original reboiler of the light removal tower is a thermosyphon reboiler with a vertical structure. The thermosyphon reboiler is a natural circulation type. The liquid at the bottom of the distillation tower enters the reboiler and is heated to partially vaporize. The inlet pipeline of the reboiler is filled with liquid, while the outlet pipeline contains a vapor-liquid mixture; the vapor-liquid mixture after heating and vaporization automatically returns to the tower, and the reboiler can continuously circulate without a pump.
[0003] The above device has the following defects during actual use: It takes a long time to reach equilibrium during normal start-up, and it takes a long time from start-up to the product at the bottom of the tower being qualified. Because after parking, the light component materials in the tower all fall to the bottom of the tower, and it usually takes about 15 hours to extract the bottom light components, which greatly increases the normal operation time of the tower and also increases energy consumption.

One end inlet of the chemical pump 4 is communicated with the tower discharge pipe 6. One end outlet of the chemical pump 4 is fixedly connected to a pressurizing pipe 8 through a flange. A third valve 52 is installed on the pressurizing pipe 8. At the same time, the end of the pressurizing pipe 8 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the second thermosiphon reboiler 3, and one end outlet of the chemical pump 4 is communicated with the second thermosiphon reboiler 3. A first valve 5 is installed on the tower discharge pipe 6, and the end of the tower discharge pipe 6 is fixedly communicated with the first thermosiphon reboiler 2.
[0019] Working principle: A first valve 5 is added to the liquid-phase tower discharge pipe 6 between the first thermosiphon reboiler 2 and the distillation tower 1, and a second thermosiphon reboiler 3 is added. It should be noted that the heat exchange area of the second thermosiphon reboiler 3 is larger than that of the first thermosiphon reboiler 2. At the same time, a high-temperature-resistant chemical pump 4 is added. The inlet of the chemical pump 4 is connected to the discharge branch pipe 7 communicating with the bottom of the distillation tower 1, and the outlet of the chemical pump 4 is connected to the bottom of the second thermosiphon reboiler 3 installed on the pressurizing pipe 8. Close the corresponding valves, turn on the external switch of the chemical pump 4, force the light-component product in the distillation tower 1 to be transported into the second thermosiphon reboiler 3, and control the liquid level. By forced transportation, the time for the tower to return to normal operation is reduced, and at the same time, energy consumption is saved.
[0020] As a preferred embodiment, the first thermosiphon reboiler 2 and the second thermosiphon reboiler 3 are connected in parallel, and the size of the second thermosiphon reboiler 3 is larger than that of the first thermosiphon reboiler 2. At the same time, the heat exchange area of the second thermosiphon reboiler 3 is larger than that of the first thermosiphon reboiler 2.
[0021] The tops of both the first thermosiphon reboiler 2 and the second thermosiphon reboiler 3 are communicated with the inside of the distillation tower 1 through pipes, and a fourth valve 53 is installed on the pipe at the top of the second thermosiphon reboiler 3.
[0022] The liquid at the bottom of the distillation tower 1 is communicated with the second thermosiphon reboiler 3 through the tower discharge pipe 6, the second valve 51, the discharge branch pipe 7, the chemical pump 4, and the pressurizing pipe 8.
[0023] As a preferred embodiment, the liquid at the bottom of the distillation tower 1 is communicated with the first thermosiphon reboiler 2 through the tower discharge pipe 6 and the first valve 5.
[0024] The chemical pump 4 is a high-temperature-resistant pump, and the chemical pump 4 is arranged on the discharge branch pipe 7 and is arranged between the second valve 51 and the third valve 52.
[0025] Example 2: As Figure 3 shown: The structure of this example is basically the same as that of Example 1, the difference is that: a valve is added to the liquid phase pipeline between the first thermosiphon reboiler 2 and the distillation column 1, and at the same time a high-temperature chemical pump 4 is added. The inlet of the pump is connected to the upper end of the valve; it is connected to the liquid phase pipeline at the bottom of the distillation column 1, the outlet of the pump is connected to the lower end of the valve; it is connected to the liquid phase pipeline at the bottom of the first thermosiphon reboiler 2.
