Chemical/Physical Processes TRIZ Cases
- Polymer Purge Model Using Population Balance
Population balance models predict purge performance by tracking granule size distribution, reducing reliance on large purge bins.
- Chemical Vessel Plate Grid Distributor Catalyst Removal
Integrated catalyst transport passage eliminates hopper cones and expansion joints to reduce inventory and simplify removal.
- Planetary Roller Extruder Bulk Polymerization Heat Management
Segmenting the reaction into dispersed droplets maintains effective heat exchange below 240°C, preventing fouling and eliminating de-volatilization steps.
- Valveless Piston Pump Catalyst Slurry Feeding
A valveless piston pump transfers catalyst slurry vertically to prevent attrition and reduce oil residue in polymer products.
- Discontinuous TRRA Addition for Polyolefin Reactor Stability
Discontinuous thermal runaway reducing agent addition prevents hot spots in fluidized bed reactors while maintaining catalyst activity.
- Polymer Particle Transfer via Intermediary Pressure Chambers
Intermediary pressure chambers separate hydrogen from polymer particles, reducing agglomeration risks and enabling independent reactor operation.
- Multi-bed catalytic converter with common inter-bed heat exchanger
A multi-bed catalytic converter merges separate shell-and-tube units into one structure, reducing tube sheets and welds while maintaining inter-bed cooling.
- Curved Fluid Distribution Caps for Fluidized Bed Reactors
Curved inner surfaces eliminate stagnant zones and prevent resin accumulation, allowing continuous reactor operation without shutdowns.
- Double Cone Fluidized Bed Reactor with Series Cyclones
Series cyclones remove agglomerates from a double cone reactor, enabling high gas velocities and stable operation.
