[0027] The AKD vacuum dewatering equipment with tail gas treatment function provided in the application has the specific process flow

[0028] I. Preparation stage

[0029] Ensure that the reaction kettle, exhaust pipeline, suspension separator, gas inlet chamber, water tank, Venturi ejector, tail gas trap and other equipment are intact, tightly connected and have no leakage.

[0030] Check whether the valves, pumps and other equipment of the nitrogen supply pipeline, water supply pipeline and spray pipeline are in normal working condition.

[0031] Prepare the AKD material to be dewatered and ensure that its quality meets the production requirements.

[0032] Prepare appropriate amount of nitrogen, water and spray liquid and other auxiliary materials according to production requirements.

[0033] II. Vacuum dewatering treatment stage

[0034] Turn on the heating device (i.e. heat exchange jacket) of the reaction kettle to heat the AKD material and make the water inside gradually evaporate.

[0035] Under the suction of the Venturi ejector, negative pressure will be generated in the reaction kettle to form a vacuum, which facilitates the output of water vapor.
