Abstract
Industrial development trends in the Russian Federation actualize a number of important issues for the production sites of the petrochemical complex. Such issues include problems at enterprises related to environmental aspects and working conditions at the processing and disposal units of by-products and waste products.Polyethylene wax is a by-product of the polymerization reaction of ethylene. As part of solving the above problems related to the production of polyethylene, modern methods of melt granulation have been studied.The analysis of the parameters of the active polyethylene wax extraction unit and the key characteristics of the by-product has been carried out. The technological scheme of the continuous granulation unit, which includes a granulation tower, is proposed.Economic calculations show the expediency of recommending the use of the method in production.
