  • Developing Linear-Alpha-Olefins Technology – from Laboratory to a Commercial Plant A
    Catalysis – Innovative Applications in Petrochemistry and Refining DGMK Conference October 4-6, 2011, Dresden, Germany Developing Linear-alpha-Olefins Technology – From Laboratory to a Commercial Plant A. Meiswinkel, A. Wöhl, W. Müller, H. Bölt Linde AG, Pullach, Germany Abstract Linear α-Olefins (LAOs) are used in several applications in chemical industry. Together with SABIC (Saudi Basic Industries Corporation) Linde jointly developed the α-SABLIN technology for a full range LAO plant as well as a 1-Hexene selective "On Purpose" technology (LAO OP) to cover the rapidly increasing demand for this specific comonomer. The α-SABLIN as well as the OP technology are both homogenously catalyzed systems. This is raising special challenges concerning process and reactor design compared to much more established heterogeneous systems in chemical industry. E.g., the reactor concept is a bubble-column which allows efficient mixing as well as cooling of the reaction mixture. The development of the process was based on laboratory experiments which – based on an initial conceptual design for a large scale technical process - were first transformed into a pilot device before the commercial plant was designed, engineered and successfully started up and declared as commercialized. Today the α-SABLIN technology is the only LAO technology with a commercial reference which is free for licensing. A lot of experience and knowledge from the α-SABLIN development and commercial operation was gained. Although newly developed OP technology is based on a different catalytic system, this experience is now utilized and transformed within the commercialization of this new technological development. Introduction Linear α-Olefins (LAO) are used in several applications in chemical industry.
