Modeling and Simulation of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) High Pressure Tubular Reactor
Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is produced by free radical polymerization. Industrially, LDPE polymerization process is usually carried out in a continuous mode (tubular or autoclave reactors) at high pressures (1300-3400 atm) and temperatures (50-340 0 C). LDPE exhibits a number of desirable properties, including high tensile strength, flexibility, high impact resistance, low crystallinity, l...
متن کاملOptimization-based strategies for the operation of low-density polyethylene tubular reactors: nonlinear model predictive control
In this work, we present a general nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) framework for low-density polyethylene (LDPE) tubular reactors. The framework is based on a first-principles dynamic model able to capture complex phenomena arising in these units. We first demonstrate the potential of using NMPC to simultaneously regulate and optimize the process economics in the presence of persisten...
متن کاملControl of a Fluidized Bed Polyethylene Reactor
In present paper, dynamic behavior and control of a fluidized bed reactor for polyethylene production has been considered. A double active sites model for Ziegler-Natta catalysts is used for simulation of polymerization reaction. Hydrodynamic behavior of the bed is modeled using a two phase model including bubble and emulsion phases in which bubble phase has plug flow pattern with different...
متن کاملControl of Polyethylene Properties using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control
Abstract: This paper deals with the control of the melt index and density of polymers produced. Nonlinear Model predictive control (NLMPC) is used for this purpose. A nonlinear reactor model combined with correlations for predicting polymer melt index and density are used to simulate the process. The simulations revealed the effectiveness of NLMPC to drive the polymer properties to follow a ser...
