The method according to this invention, the composition of the gaseous stream that contains water and hexane that obtains from described evaporating area is decided with the composition of the logistics that contains water, oligopolymer and hexane of evaporating.Usually, come from when adopting slurry polymerization processes to prepare the production process of high density polyethylene(HDPE) in the described logistics that contains water, oligopolymer and hexane, take the total amount of the gaseous stream that contains water and hexane that obtains from described evaporating area as benchmark, the content of water can be the 0.025-0.04 % by weight, the content of hexane can be the 90-99 % by weight, and surplus is C 2-C 4Light constituent.
The method according to this invention, the component distillation condition in the described drying zone are not particularly limited and can select for the routine of this area.Usually, when the temperature of logistics was 80-130 ℃ after the heat exchange of sending into drying zone, preferably the pressure with drying zone was adjusted to 0.01-0.16MPaG, and the temperature of the hexane streams that obtains from drying zone like this is generally 80-130 ℃.After the described gaseous stream that contains water and hexane that a part and the temperature of hexane streams is 115-135 ℃ carries out heat exchange, hexane streams after the heat exchange generally can reach 85-132 ℃, be suitable for again being sent in the described dehydration tower as the heating medium that boils again, and carry out logistics after the heat exchange with the part of described hexane streams and only need a small amount of heat-eliminating medium even need not heat-eliminating medium to lower the temperature directly to send into and carry out component distillation in the drying zone; The temperature of simultaneously carrying out the oil phase logistics after the heat exchange with the hexane streams that is used for output then can reach 50-80 ℃, and it is sent into when carrying out component distillation in the drying zone, substantially can not improve the thermal load of drying zone.
The method according to this invention, described drying zone can be the common various forms of devices that can realize the component distillation purpose in this area, for example: described drying zone is specifically as follows dehydration tower.Can adopt this area the whole bag of tricks commonly used to regulate the pressure of drying zone, for example: when described drying zone is dehydration tower, can regulate by the tower top pressure of regulating dehydration tower the pressure of drying zone.
