Polyethylene (PE)
|
High density polyethylene (HDPE) - PE
|
Univation Technologies
|
HDPE is made under controlled conditions by applying intense heat to petroleum to help create ethylene gas. During its production, the gas molecules will attach to form polymers, which then produce polyethylene.
High density polyethylene plastic process (thermoplastic) is made from a string of ethylene molecules (hence, the poly part of polyethylene), and is known for being both lightweight and strong.
|
|
Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) – PE
|
Univation Technologies
|
Linear low density polyethylene process involves the manufacturing via the copolymerization of ethylene and an alpha-olefin such as butene, hexene, or octene co-monomers.
The co-monomers are most often polymerized using the Unipol process, which is also known as the gas phase process.
|
|
Polypropylene (PP)
|
Polypropylene (PP)
|
Poliofine Technology
Novolen Technology/Lyndoll Basell Technology
|
Production of polypropylene takes place by slurry, solution or gas phase process, in which the propylene monomer is subjected to heat and pressure in the presence of a catalyst system.
Polymerisation is achieved at relatively low temperature and pressure and the product yielded is translucent, but readily coloured.

|
|
Electrical
Equipment
|
Lead the teams for the execution of Maintenance works related with the following equipment / aspects:
|
Transformers
|
These are used to step-up or step-down the voltage of electricity, depending on the requirements of the equipment being used. They are used in various applications such as to power motors or to provide electrical isolation between different parts of the plant.
|
|
Switchgear
|
This is a collection of switches, fuses, and circuit breakers that are used to control the flow of electricity to various parts of the plant. This includes main distribution boards (MDBs), sub-main distribution boards (SMDBs), and motor control centers (MCCs).
|
|
Motors
|
Electric motors are used to power pumps, compressors, and other equipment throughout the plant. These are typically AC motors or DC motors, and can be found in various sizes and power ratings depending on the application
|
|
Cables and wiring
|
These are used to connect the electrical components throughout the plants. This includes power and control cables, instrumentation cables, and communication cables.
|
|
Control systems
|
These include programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and other systems that are used to monitor and control the operation of the plant. They are essential for ensuring that equipment operates safely and efficiently.
|
|
Lighting
|
Adequate lighting is essential for worker safety and to ensure that equipment is being used correctly. Lighting systems include emergency lighting, area lighting, and task lighting.
|
|
Grounding and Lightning Protection Systems
|
These systems are used to protect the plant and workers from electrical hazards such as lightning strikes and ground faults.
