Process Economics Program Report 36C
Published: Feb-93
This report updates and supplements information in PEP Report 36B on technologies and costs for the production of LLDPE.
In the report we present two processes that are practiced commercially and one that is being developed. We evaluate a gas-phase process, a solution process, and a new process that combines slurry and gas technology. We evaluate the production economics of one nameplate grade for each process.
In addition to the process evaluations, this report contains
summaries of patents relating to the processes we have covered. Also included
is a section on the present status of the LLDPE industry with a list of estimated
plant capacities.
