When the two radiating fans 1253 blow relatively, the wind will spread evenly to all directions, effectively taking away the heat on the radiating pipe 1251, thereby achieving rapid heat dissipation.
[0028] Each shunt pipe 1261 is provided with a plurality of protrusions along its length direction for heat conduction. The contact area between the shunt pipe 1261 and the heat conducting agent is increased. This design can accelerate the liquefaction process of tetrahydrofuran vapor and improve the efficiency of rectification. The condensing assembly 12 comprises a fifth connecting pipe 1241, one end of the fifth connecting pipe 1241 penetrates through the top end of the condenser 124 and is connected with the upper shunt disc 126, the other end of the fifth connecting pipe 1241 is connected with the top end of the pressure swing rectification tank 1, the lower shunt disc 126 is connected with a discharge pipe 1242, the discharge pipe 1242 is used to discharge the condensed tetrahydrofuran liquid from the condenser 124.

[0032] The raw liquid in the pressure swing rectification tank 1 is pumped into the heating tank 111. In the heating tank 111, the heater 115 heats the raw liquid. Then, the heated raw liquid is sprayed and atomized through the nozzles 117. This step makes tetrahydrofuran evaporate quickly from water, so that the rectification is quickly carried out.

Finally, the heat dissipated heat conducting agent flows back into the storage tank 121 for recycling.
