- Example 11 The same polymerization slurry used in Example 1 was continuously treated in the apparatus shown in FIG.
- the downward pipe 1 was a vertical hollow pipe having only a straight pipe portion without a stirrer and having an inner diameter of 70 mm and a total length of 1 m.
- the screw 6 has a length of 3 m, an outer diameter of 65 mm, a shaft diameter of 24 mm, and a pitch of 60 mm. Yes, and rotated at 5 rpm.
- the polymerization slurry was supplied directly to an upward pipe (position H in Fig. 1) having a scraping screw inside.
- the supply amount of the polymerization slurry was 250 gZ, and the acetone was introduced and supplied at a rate of 200 g / min from the position of F (about 1,000 mm from the upper end of the upward pipe 2) in FIG.
- PPS 16.4 k, NaC 1 17.8 kg, NMP 56.9 kg 100 kg of polymerization slurry
- about 100 mm from the upper end of the upward pipe 2 528.8 kg of wet cake was obtained from outlet G at the position.
- the PPS recovery was 96% and the NaCl recovery was 97%.
- the amount of acetone used for cleaning was It was 4.9 times.
- the washing wastewater discharged from outlet B contained 0.7 kg of PP S and 0.5 kg of NaCl.
- Example 2 100 kg of the same polymerization slurry used in Example 2 (PPS 16.4 kg N a C 1 17.8 kg, NMP 56.9 kg) was premixed with 40 kg of acetone as a cleaning solvent, The gas was continuously supplied at 350 g / min from the top A of the downcomer 1 of the apparatus shown in FIG. Acetone was supplied at 100 g / min from supply port F in FIG. Other conditions were the same as in Example 2.
- the same polymerization slurry was mixed in advance with a part of acetone, which was a washing solvent, and was continuously treated by the apparatus shown in FIG. At this time, the apparatus was used as a solid-liquid separation apparatus without using acetone supplied countercurrently as a washing solvent.
