Development of a computationally efficient model for the control of Ziegler-Natta catalysed industrial production of high density polyethylene

High density polyethylene is commonly produced by the slurry phase co-polymerisation of ethylene and other alkenes, using heterogeneous titanium-based Ziegler-Natta catalysts. During grade transitions, when reactor conditions are manipulated to change polymer properties, significant quantities of of...
