[0003] Existing gas-liquid separation devices have significant drawbacks: traditional cylindrical separation chambers are prone to interference with the natural stratification of gas and liquid due to turbulent flow fields, resulting in "droplets entrained in the gas phase and bubbles mixed in the liquid phase," which reduces product purity; the lack of precise temperature control design for the separation chamber makes it impossible to regulate the temperature inside the chamber according to the thermodynamic characteristics of the reaction system, thus hindering the optimization of separation efficiency; liquid phase sampling and wastewater discharge require shutdown and disassembly of the chamber, which not only compromises the system's sealing performance but also reduces production continuity, making it difficult to meet the technical requirements of high efficiency, precision, and continuity for differential reaction systems.
