High Density Polyethylene
(HDPE) Plant was put into operation in 1975 in accordance
with the license of Phillips
Petroleum Co (USA) and engineering of Crawford & Russell
(USA).
The process is performed on two identical production lines
in he loop type reactors under medium pressures, which ensures
high operation flexibility, with an aim to produce a large
number of HDPE grades in the form of pellets and powder.
Maximum achieved capacity on the two production lines is
76,000 t/y.
It serves as basis for various processing techniques, which are
used to process High Density Polyethylene (HDPE): blow moulding,
injection moulding, extrusion and pressing, whereby most diversified
products are obtained – from household objects and technical parts
up to the gas and water distribution pipes.
