An installation for manufacturing cross-linkable polyethylene compounds which comprises a melting machine (101), a melt pump (102) and a filtration unit (103) to produce cross-linkable polyethylene compounds that may be further used for manufacturing insulating parts of medium, high and extra-high voltage power cables, and a method for manufacturing such cross-linkable polyethylene compounds.

The present invention provides ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition pellet reduced in coloration. The ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition pellet of the invention include an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A), a polyamide resin (B), and an alkaline earth metal salt (C) and have a yellowness index (YI) value of 10 or less when examined with a spectral color-difference meter by a transmission method.

Process for deodorization of recycled polyolefin pellets (23) in three steps: In a first step, the moist pellets (23) are contacted with a circulating inert gas at a temperature between 110° C. and 160° C. in a steam stripper (11), and the steam is precipitated in a condensate trap (29). In a second step, the pellets (23) are sent to a vacuum silo (13) under negative pressure and contacted with a gas flowing in countercurrent. In a third step, after the vacuum silo (13) the pellets (23) are sent to a first heat exchanger (15) and contacted with the gas flowing in countercurrent from the second step.
