摘要:
A polyethylene production process, comprising contacting ethylene and a polymerization catalyst under suitable reaction conditions to yield a polymerization product stream, separating a light gas stream from the polymerization product stream, wherein the light gas stream comprises ethane and unreacted ethylene, contacting the light gas stream with an absorption solvent system, wherein at least a portion of the ethylene from the light gas stream is absorbed by the absorption solvent system, removing unabsorbed gases of the light gas stream from contact with the absorption solvent system to form a waste gas stream, and recovering ethylene from the absorption solvent system.

A method of preparing a catalyst comprising aging a silica support in an alkaline solution to produce an alkaline aged silica support, removing at least a portion of the alkaline solution from the alkaline aged silica support to produce a dried silica support, and activating the silica support to produce a catalyst composition, wherein alkaline aging lowers the surface area of the silica support to less than about 50% of the original value and wherein activation of the silica support is carried out in batches of equal to or greater than about 500 lbs for a time period of less than about 8 hours. A method of preparing a polymer comprising alkaline aging a silica support material, adding chromium to the silica support material prior to the alkaline aging, after the alkaline aging, or both to form a chromium-silica support, rapidly activating the chromium-silica support produce an activated olefin polymerization catalyst, contacting the activated olefin polymerization catalyst with at least one monomer in a reaction zone under conditions suitable to produce a polymer, and recovering the polymer.
