Polyethylene pellets were Very abundant" on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, particularly near plastics fabrication factories (39, 40). Wastes from these factories and spillage during cargo loading and transport of raw materials were considered to be the major sources. Similarly, wastes from local plastic fabrication factories were thought to be the source of pellets on the beaches of Lebanon (40).

If for a given material, Vmf > 50 mm s1 (i.e., above the boundary shown in Fig. 5) andX< 0.001 m3 s kg-1 (i.e., below the boundary shown in Fig. 6), then dense-phase low-velocity slug-flow (Wypych, 1995a) is possible (e.g., mustard seed, polyethylene powder, 1000 pm sand, polyethylene pellets and granulated sugar). Note that dilute-phase also is possible. 

The Pt6Cl12 0.1C2H5C1- 5.7H20 clathrate is a fine brown powder. This substance has no characteristic melting point. It decomposes on heating in the solid phase starting from 70°C. IR spectrum (400-200 cm-1, polyethylene pellets) cm- 344 s, 337 s, 318 vs, and 204 m. 

Particles used in this simulation were 5 mm spherical polyethylene pellets with a particle density of 880 kg/m3. The gas was introduced into the pipe inlet with a constant superficial gas velocity of 2 m/s and all particles in the solids slug and the stationary layer were assigned a low initial velocity at 0.01 m/s to represent a dynamic starting condition. The simulation started with an ambient pressure in the whole pipe and this ambient pressure was kept constant at the pipe outlet while the pressure rose in the pipeline when gas was introduced from the inlet. 

Different combinations of gas and solids flow rates were tested in a 7.6 cm bore pipe with a common industrial granular material - polyethylene pellets. The pellets were spher-... 

In a typical 80,000 tons/year plant, capital costs were about 220 per metric ton in 1974. To produce 1000 kg of polymer, 1030 kg of monomer is needed, together with 1 kg of hydrogen and 25 kg of diluent. Catalyst and miscellaneous chemicals cost about 4 per 1000 kg of polyethylene pellets produced. For production, 300 kg of medium-pressure steam, 800 kg of low-pressure steam, 530 kWh of electrical energy, 200 m3 of water, 30 m3 of nitrogen, and 600 m3 of air are also required. To polymerize propylene in suspension, the same technology can be used. Catalysts now available [based on TiCl3 (see Table II)] make it unnecessary to separate isotactic from atactic materials. 

Molded foam for package cushioning, flotation devices, and sports equipment is made from foamed pellets. Polyethylene pellets are foamed with volatile organic liquid and cross-linked by peroxide or electron beam. The foamed pellets are poured into a... 

IR spectrum measured in KBr and polyethylene pellets, respectively, with a Nicolet 60SX FT-IR spectrometer (resolution 4 cm" ). 

Conveying capacity expressed as vol % of solids in the stream usually is well under 5 vol %. From Table 5.1, for example, it is about 1.5% for alumina and 6.0% for polyethylene pellets, figured at atmospheric pressure at 12 psig these percentages will be roughly doubled, and at subatmospheric pressures they will be lower. 

To prepare the E//E/ABP blends (the double slash indicates a physical blend), polyethylene pellets were mixed with dry ice and powdered in a wyiie mill. After drying, the powder was mixed with the E/ABP fluff and the mixture extruded into film (1-3 mils thick) using a 3/4" KlUlon extruder at 200 to 225 C. 

Normally a waste having a heating value of 750 Btu/lb is burned in a kiln. It is fed continuously through an auger. Occasionally a solid waste consisting of contaminated polyethylene pellets is batch fed to the kiln in 30-gal fiber containers. The pellets have a bulk density of 50 Ib/ft and a heating value (HV) of 18,350 Btu/lb. A single container is consumed in 6.5 min. Assume the kiln described in Problem SUP.4 is employed in this operation. 

After running on the press, the plate was removed without cleaning of the image, and measurements of contact angle made on the inked surface. The surface energies of the virgin ink were also determined by measurement of a series of dilutions in Bromonaphthalene and the contact angles on polyethylene pellets. The results are shown in Table 11. 

Sample Preparation. Polyethylene pellets were processed on a two-roll mill followed by pressing between clean aluminum sheets at 110°-125 °C for one minute. The resultant films were preoxidized to varying extents by initially exposing them in air to 5 Mrads of y-radiation from a C060 source followed by exposure to one atmosphere of oxygen gas in sealed vessels at 90°-100°C. The extent of oxidation was monitored by ir spectroscopy (see below). Two types of laminates were formed from 1.5 cm X 1.0 cm polyethylene films about 0.025 cm in thickness (a) a... 

The production of polyolefins started in the research laboratories. Polyethylene was the first produced polyolefin in 1933 in the research laboratories of Imperial Chemical Company by E.W. Fawcett and R.O. Gibson, from pure ethylene by high pressure and temperature, polyethylene pellets are shown in Fig. 1.1. The production of PE is expected to reach 100 million of metric tons in 2018, and the investment of the production can reach 1 bn for new plants. 

As with any type of pneumatic conveying system, the transfer rate depends upon material characteristics and distance. Railcar unloading has the added complication of always being a high-lift situation, anywhere from 40 to 70 ft vertical. A 25-hp unit with a 4-in conveying line moving polyethylene pellets approximately 100 ft horizontal and 60 ft vertical will maintain an approximate throughput of 10,000 Ib/h. 

Two people were operating an injection machine. They rehed on verbal communication in a noisy workplace to manage the machine s operation. There was only one set of controls. One worker handled the controls. A second worker removed completed parts. Material to make a part fed directly from a hopper of polyethylene pellets at the right part of the machine s cycle.

The parabolic nature of the surface velocity is consistent with observations made by Singh (1978) who also used similar polyethylene pellets in a rotary kiln experiment. One observation about the free surface flow is that the symmetry in the velocity profile is quick to...
