    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processes for production of polyolefins from olefin monomer(s) in a gas phase reactor using condensing agent(s) (CAs), and in particular relates to controlling condensed phase cooling in a gas phase reactor used to polymerize olefin monomer(s). The method may include introducing first and second condensing agent(s) into the reactor at ratio(s) determined by ascertaining a stick limit for the first condensing agent, calculating an equivalence factor relating the first and second condensing agents, ascertaining total allowable condensing agent, and calculating amount of the first condensing agent removed and replaced by the second condensing agent. The method may further include calculating the dew point limit of a gas phase composition including olefin monomer(s) as well as the first and second condensing agents; and determining if introducing a mixture comprising the olefin monomer(s) and the condensing agent composition would exceed the calculated dew point limit.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to processes for producing polyolefins in a gas phase reactor using condensing agent(s) (CAs), and real-time calculation of the ratio of one type of CA to another CA within a CA composition. This disclosure provides methods for controlling condensed phase cooling in a gas phase reactor used to polymerize olefins. The polymerization may employ one or more polymerization catalysts to polymerize one or more olefin monomers, and may include introducing a first condensing agent and a second condensing agent in a ratio of first condensing agent to second condensing agent, which ratio is calculated by ascertaining a stick limit for a first condensing agent, calculating an equivalence factor relating the first condensing agent and a second condensing agent, ascertaining a total allowable condensing agent, and calculating a first amount of the first condensing agent removed and replaced by a second amount of the second condensing agent.
