20090137753 | PROCESS FOR POLYMERIZING OLEFINS IN THE PRESENCE OF AN OLEFIN POLYMERIZATION CATALYST - The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of multimodal ethylene homo- or copolymers in at least two stages, the process comprising preparation of a first ethylene homo- or copolymer fraction in a loop reactor in slurry phase, preparation of a second ethylene homo- or copolymer fraction in a gas phase reactor, by using a catalyst not containing an inorganic oxide support, and operating the gas phase reactor in such conditions that at least part of the gas is recycled, and that at least a part of the recycled gas is condensed and the (partially) condensed gas is re-introduced into the gas phase reactor. | 05-28-2009 |
20110245445 | REMOVING VOLATILE COMPOUNDS FROM POLYMER PELLETS - The invention is directed to a process for the treatment of plastic material comprising a) providing a liquid; b) contacting the plastic material with the liquid; c) keeping the plastic material in the liquid at Tb−25° C. to Tb of the liquid, wherein Tb is the boiling point of the liquid at the applied pressure; and d) removing the plastic material from the liquid. Furthermore, the invention is directed to the use of a liquid for the treatment of plastic material and to a plant for treating plastic material with a liquid. | 10-06-2011 |
20120178887 | PROCESS FOR PRODUCING POLYOLEFINS - The present invention deals with a process of producing a polymer of at least one olefin in two consecutive reactors in gas phase in the presence of an olefin polymerisation catalyst where an olefin is polymerised in a first polymerization reactor in the presence of an olefin polymerisation catalyst and a first reaction gas mixture to form a fluidized bed comprising an olefin polymer and said first reaction gas mixture. The first reaction gas mixture together with the olefin polymer is continuously or intermittently withdrawn from the first polymerisation reactor and directed into a separation vessel so that a bed of polymer is formed in said separation vessel. A portion of said first reaction gas mixture is withdrawn from said separation vessel and returned into the first polymerization reactor to a point where the pressure is lower than in the separation vessel. The olefin polymer is withdrawn from said separation vessel to form a second product stream and the second product stream is directed into a second polymerization reactor. A second gas may be introduced into the bottom part of the separation vessel to avoid the carry-over of the reactants from the first polymerisation stage into the second polymerisation stage. | 07-12-2012 |
20140042010 | METHOD FOR RECOVERING TRANSITION METAL TETRAHALIDE AND HYDROCARBONS FROM A WASTE STREAM - The present invention provides a process for recovering transition metal tetrahalides from a waste stream coming from a catalyst manufacturing process by (a) establishing a mixed stream comprising transition metal tetrahalide and transition metal alkoxyhalides; (b) forming a falling liquid film from the mixed stream of step (a) at a temperature of from 25 to 85° C. and an absolute pressure of from 0.05 to 0.6 bar; and (c) establishing from the film of step (b) a first vapour stream containing from 90 to 100% of recoverable components and a second liquid stream containing about 10 to 80% of titanium haloalkoxides. | 02-13-2014 |
