ICC - Process Schematic Text: <p>The process under analysis comprises four major sections: (1) Feed Preparation; (2) Polymerization; and (3) Separation; and (4) Finishing.</p><p>Feed Preparation. This area comprises a catalyst activation system (fluidized-bed activator) and fixed bed treaters for purification of ethylene monomer, 1-hexene and isobutane, used as diluent in the polymerization.</p><p>Polymerization. In a loop reactor, the monomers and the catalyst suspension are mixed and circulated - as the polymer particles precipitate, they do not dissolve in the slurry. Cooling water in reactor jacket removes reaction heat. The slurry is continuously discharged to a flash chamber, for removing residual monomers.</p><p>Separation. The flashed stream passes through a bag filter for polymer fines removal. The fines are sent to the purge column. In the purge column, the residual hydrocarbons are stripped from the polymer product with heated nitrogen. The separated gaseous hydrocarbon streams from flash chamber and purge column are sent to purification in order to recover monomers and diluent, reused in the process.</p><p>Finishing. The polymer powder from the purge column, additives and antiblocks are fed to a pelletizing system, where the mixture is melted, homogenized, and pelletized. The pellets are homogenized in blending silos and stored.</p>
