Reactor Anti-fouling

Fouling is the process of matter building up inside the reactor walls which often causes blockages leading to increased downtime, or damage to the production line. To help prevent these issues, reactor anti-fouling agents can be used.

Atmer™ 163 is an anti-fouling agent for the Spheripol process which modifies catalyst activity to reduce overheating which causes the polymer to stick to the reactor walls, and helps to lubricate the product so it flows easier through the production line. Additionally, Atmer™ 163 reduces static charge build up, decomposes alkyl cluminum compounds in waste streams and neutralizes acidic catalyst residues.

Atmer™ 163

Atmer™ 163 is used in olefin polymerization processes to eliminate fouling of the reactor, ensuring consistent production and minimizing shutdowns due to blockages. Atmer™ 163 modifies catalyst activity, resulting in better particle size control, lubricates the product and the reactor walls, and reduces static charge build up. Additionally, it can be used to decompose alkyl aluminum compounds in waste streams and to neutralize acidic catalyst residues.
