A TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM (1) OF THE INVENTION RECOVERS REACTION HEAT IN A REACTOR (5) IN WHICH AN EXOTHERMAL REACTION OCCURS, TO CONTROL THE TEMPERATURE IN THE REACTOR (5). THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM (1) INCLUDES: A REFRIGERANT DRUM (2) IN WHICH VAPOR AND A LIQUID REFRIGERANT ARE STORED IN A VAPOR-LIQUID EQUILIBRIUM STATE; A HEAT REMOVING SECTION (7) ARRANGED IN THE REACTOR (5) TO EVAPORATE A PART OF THE LIQUID REFRIGERANT SUPPLIED FROM THE REFRIGERANT DRUM (2) BY THE REACTION HEAT; A RETURN LINE (8) THAT RETURNS MIXED PHASE FLUID OF VAPOR AND THE LIQUID REFRIGERANT GENERATED IN THE HEAT REMOVING SECTION (7) TO THE REFRIGERANT DRUM (2); A VAPOR OUTLET LINE (9) THAT SUPPLIES VAPOR IN THE REFRIGERANT DRUM (2) TO OUTSIDE OF THE SYSTEM; AND A REPLENISHING LINE (10) THAT SUPPLIES MAKEUP WATER IN AN AMOUNT MATCHED WITH AN AMOUNT OF VAPOR DISCHARGED TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE SYSTEM, TO THE RETURN LINE (8).
