    Abstract: A process for the preparation of an ethylene polymer including the step of polymerizing ethylene or copolymerizing ethylene and one or more other olefins in the presence of a Phillips-type chromium catalyst in a gas-phase polymerization reactor containing a reactor bed of particulate polymer, wherein the gas-phase polymerization reactor is equipped with a cycle gas line, wherein the reactor gas returned to the polymerization reactor through the cycle gas line has been condensed in part and the amount of liquid in the returned reactor gas is from 0.5 wt. % to 10 wt. % based upon the total weight of the reactor gas/liquid composition, the polymerization is carried out at from 108° C. to 125° C., and an aluminum alkyl is fed into the polymerization reactor in an amount in the range of from 0.0025 mole to 0.1 mole per ton of dosed ethylene.

    Abstract: A process for starting a multizone circulating reactor containing no polyolefin particles, comprising the steps of conveying gas through the reactor and the gas recycle line, feeding a particulate material comprising a polymerization catalyst and optionally polyolefin into the reactor, controlling the gas flow in a vertical reactor zone equipped with a throttling valve at the bottom so that the upwards gas velocity in the bottom part of this reaction zone is lower than the terminal free-fall velocity of the particulate material fed into the reactor, and, after the weight of the particulate polyolefin in this reactor zone is higher than the drag force of the upward moving gas, controlling the circulation rate of the polymer particles within the multizone circulating reactor by adjusting the opening of the throttling valve and adjusting the flow rate of a dosing gas.
