<p>A process for heating a polymer-containing stream being transferred from a polymerization reactor to a separation zone or device is described, comprising passing the stream through a heater comprising at least one transfer line for the stream and means for heating the transfer line, wherein the average particle size of the solid polymer is less than 3mm, the mass flowrate of the polymer-containing stream exiting the heater is no more than 15% greater than the mass flowrate exiting the reactor, and the average velocity of the polymer-containing stream at 80% along the length of the heated part of the transfer line measured from the transfer line inlet is at least 6 m/s, preferably at least 8m/s and more preferably at least 10m/s.</p> |
