Fluidized-bed reactor and physical-chemical properties modeling for polyethylene production
A new steady-state model incorporating interactions between separate bubble and emulsion phases inside the reactor bed and a polymer physical-chemical characterization model were developed. A computer program, FBPOL, was also developed to accomplish the linkage of these two models, in order to predict the polymer grade that can be produced by different operational conditions.
