Method for preparing polymer

Abstract

Provided is a method of preparing a polymer including: supplying a monomer stream and a solvent stream to a reactor and performing a polymerization reaction to prepare a reaction product; supplying a reactor discharge stream to a volatilization device, separating a polymer from a lower portion of the volatilization device, splitting an upper discharge stream including an unreacted monomer, a solvent, and an inert gas into two or more streams, and divisionally supplying the split streams to a plurality of condensers, respectively; condensing and separating the unreacted monomer and the solvent in each of the condensers and supplying a gaseous stream therefrom to a condenser installed at a rear end of each condenser; and supplying a gaseous stream discharged from a condenser installed at the rearmost end to a vacuum unit.
