Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Polypropylene (PP) homopolymer production from polymer grade (PG) propylene using a gas phase process. The process examined is similar to CB&I Lummus Novolen process. This process is based on the polymerization of gaseous PG propylene in vertical stirred-bed reactors. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): US Patent 5639822, issued to BASF in 1997 (assigned to Novolen Technology Holdings in 2001) Keywords: PG Propylene, Propene, Gas-Phase Reactor, Vertical Stirred-Bed
