Two-phase multi-scale modeling of a tubular loop propylene polymerization reactor

In the present paper a new two-phase multi-scale mathematical model of a tubular loop reactor is presented to describe the bulk polymerization of propylene. The model comprises transient mass and energy balances for the liquid and solid phases and population balance equations to describe the spatio-...
