Abstract
The present application relates to a method for removing an unreacted vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) in polyvinyl chloride (PVC). According to an illustrative stripping apparatus and a stripping method using the stripping apparatus of the present application, in a stripping process using steam, a temperature difference between a raw material including a target substance to be removed and steam is minimized to suppress foam generation in the stripping process, thereby increasing efficiency of removing the target substance to be removed, particularly, an unreacted VCM in PVC. In addition, a cleansing cycle to remove foams generated in the stripping apparatus can be reduced, thereby not only securing economic feasibility of the process, but also preventing degradation in quality of a final product that may occur when an antifoamer to remove the foams is used.
