Design of Knowledge-Based Polyethylene and Polypropylene Compound and Masterbatch Formulations for the Production of Higher Value-Added Products Along the Value Chain

Design and development of formulations for six specialized grades of polyethylene- and polypropylene-based compounds and masterbatches (including crack-resistant, light-stabilized, silane-crosslinkable, barrier nanocomposite, halogen-free flame-retardant, and engineering-grade PP compounds) to enhance the value chain and reduce the sale of unprocessed raw materials.

Overview
  1. 1

    The challenge

    Compatibility of additives with the polymer matrix, control of uniform dispersion during extrusion, prevention of thermal degradation, maintenance of consistent properties at industrial scale, and adaptation of formulations to different feedstock grades.

  2. 2

    Our approach

    Systematic research and development, formulation optimization through laboratory testing, pilot-scale sample production, and transfer of technical know-how to the industrial production unit with an annual capacity of 100,000 tonnes.

  3. 3

    The result

    Technical reports, optimized formulations, prototype samples, process engineering and quality control documentation, and a database of product performance properties.

Design and manufacture of a turbo-compressor for supplying air to the combustion chamber and providing compressed air for the plant.

Jey Oil Refining Company

Design and manufacture of an industrial turbo-compressor to supply combustion chamber air and plant compressed air by utilizing the heat generated from the combustion of excess gas. The key innovation is the elimination of the power turbine rotor and the splitting of the hot gas flow upstream of the gas-generator turbine inlet, which reduces costs while increasing aerodynamic loading.
