ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a process for the reduction of the vinyl chloride content of aqueous dispersions of vinyl chloride polymers and copolymers by counter-current stripping with steam in a perforated plate column, by (1) adjusting the amount of steam introduced at the bottom of the column in such relation to the perforated area of an individual plate that the pressure drop across one plate gives a steam space between two adjacent plates of not more than 50 mm in height, such that the steam space is established just underneath the upper perforated plate and whereby the liquid layer is maintained above the lower perforated plate, and the liquid by bubbling steam therethrough, flushes the wall (surfaces) of the column in the steam space and said perforated plates to become clear of polymer particles; (2) the amount of dispersion fed to the top of the column and the amount of outgoing, stripped dispersion are adjusted in such relation to each other that at any time, the liquid layer is maintained well above the downcomer of the uppermost perforated plate; and (3) above the liquid level and the level at which the dispersion is fed, a liquid is introduced which continuously or discontinuously flushes the wall of the column.
