17th LDPE Plant Improvement Conference

2024/06/17

The 17th LDPE Plant Improvement Conference took place this year from 17 to 19 June in the Latvian capital of Riga. On the conference organized by Uhde HPT, companies involved in the operation of LDPE and EVA production plants get together to exchange news and innovations in the industry.

At the LDPE Plant Improvement Conference the working group's latest research results are presented to an audience of industry specialists in particular. This year the group was represented with three lectures:

  • Performance of Peroxide Cocktails in the High-Pressure Polyethylene Process and Investigation of their Decomposition Kinetics, Svenja Albus, Sandra Pietrasch, Markus Busch
  • Investigation of the Transfer Activity in the High-Pressure Polyethylene Process, Laura Euler Bueno, Markus Busch
  • Safety-Related Investigation of Decomposition and Relief Processes, Aaron Röblitz, Markus Busch

On top of the lecture program and discussions the group had the opportunity to present the working methods and additional views into the ongoing research at its own booth. The conference offers a good platform for gaining an insight into industry-relevant topics and making contacts in the LDPE producing sector.
