This report presents a cost analysis of Polypropylene (PP) homopolymer production from polymer grade (PG) propylene using a gas phase process. The process examined is similar to the processes INEOS Innovene and JPP HORIZONE. This process is based on the polymerization of gaseous PG propylene in horizontal stirred-bed reactors. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): US Patent 6069212, originally issued to BP Amoco in 2000 (assigned to INEOS in 2007) Keywords: PG Propylene, Propene, Gas-Phase Reactor, Tubular Reactor, Japan Polypropylene Corporation, JNC Petrochemical Corporation
