- Ethylene Polymerisation Reactors
This course describes the PE polymerisation reaction kinetics and reactor design in detail. The main focus is found on the actual polymerisation reactors and their design and operation. Each different polymerisation scheme is investigated, and the respective reactors are presented in detail. Reaction kinetics in each type are presented and explained. Phase equilibria, fluid flows and especially heterogeneous fluid flows and transfer mechanisms are key factors to this course.
Course Objectives
- To understand Ethylene polymerisation procedures
- To learn Ethylene polymerisation reaction schemes
- To learn Ethylene polymerisation catalytic routes
- To understand all Ethylene polymerisation reactors and their attributes
- To understand control of polymerisation reaction kinetics
- To understand polymerisation reaction thermodynamics
Who Should Attend?
This course is a great match for:
- Chemists, Chemical Engineers, Industrial Engineers working in polymerisation units
- Process Engineers, Chemical engineers looking to increase their understanding of polymerisation processes
- Any individual seeking to understand polymerisation of ethylene and polymerisation reactors
- Academic students and personnel looking to increase their understanding in the field

What our delegates say
Thank you for the opportunity for having attended Advanced Skills of the Bid and Tender Management Process from London Training for Excellence. It was a good experience as I find myself with added knowledge so as to contribute I a more quality manner to my com…
The course is very adaptable to everyday work and contributes to developing CSR framework in our own organisation. Very practical and useful.
The training provided by LondonTFE are very inspirational and thought provoking. The outlines are comprehensive and the method of teaching is mostly practice-oriented. The LondonTFE staff always been able to balance the composition of participants, which contr…
