Summer InternshipReliance Industries Limited May 2017 - Jun 2017Hazira Surat GujaratPROJECT INTERNSHIP, Technology Platform at PP Plant GroupPrime Objective: Use of pre-blended additives in polymer processing. I have done an analysis of the plant, especially that additive blending section and I found that the process of additives mixing was very time and energy consuming. So we decided to change the additive system.We did a trial of our new system where we directly mixed the pre-blended additive to the main system and found that the properties were same as we were as expecting. -
