    Notes: The octane enhancer tertiary amyl methyl ether (TAME) is produced by liquid phase synthesis from methanol and a mixture of isoamylenes, namely 2-methyl-1-butene and 2-methyl-2-butene, using a sulfonic acid ion exchange resin as catalyst. Three reactions take place simultaneously in TAME synthesis: etherification of the two methylbutenes and their isomerisation. In order to study the equilibrium of the multiple reactions in TAME synthesis, the thermodynamic properties of the compounds in the liquid phase and equilibrium constants were calculated using a modified UNIFAC method to describe the nonideality of the system. Four parameters influencing the equilibrium conversion were derived and discussed in detail. Supplemental experiments were performed at three temperatures in the range from 303 to 343 K and at different initial molar ratios of educts. Equilibrium conversions of methanol were determined from these experiments and compared with calculated values. At 298 K the predicted activity based equilibrium constant was 22.9 for TAME synthesis from 2-methyl-1-butene and 1.6 for TAME synthesis from 2-methyl-2-butene; for isomerisation of 2-methyl-1-butene to 2-methyl-2-butene a value of 14.3 was obtained.

    Notes: An experimental set-up is presented for the measurement of reaction rates in the liquid phase synthesis of tertiary amyl methyl ether (TAME) from methanol and a mixture of 2-methyl-1-butene and 2-methyl-2-butene using an acidic ion exchange resin (Lewatit SPC 118) as catalyst. The reaction was performed in a continuous-flow recycle reactor at a temperature of 333.15 K and a pressure of 1.6 MPa. Determination of the age distribution (Fcurve) of the reactor showed that mixed flow is approached at a recycle ratio of R = 10. Experiments were performed to reveal the limits of operating conditions where the various resistances do not affect the rate. In agreement with estimation of Reynolds numbers, hindrance by external mass transfer can be excluded at a volumetric flow rate of 10 ml/min and a recycle ratio of R = 10. The maximum temperature increase of the whole particle resulting from limitation of external heat transfer was estimated to be about 3 K. Variation of the size of resin particles revealed the existence of a critical methanol concentration, above which reaction rates can be determined without influence of internal mass transport phenomena. The maximum temperature increase in the particle was estimated to be 0.3 K.

    Notes: A series of industrial powders, most of them organic, were characterized in terms of volumetric mean size, size distribution, density, particle shape, water rentention characteristics (under a series of controlled ambient relative humidities) and loosely packed and densely packed voidages (giving the compressibility). The behaviour of the powders in powder handling apparatus (a precision powder filler) was also determined. The minimum and maximum bulk densities of the powders were related to the properties of the individual particles by means of a semi-empirical equation. The filling capacity of the powder handling apparatus was found to be related to the maximum bulk density of the powder while the filling accuracy turned out to be related to the compressibility of the powder. Knowing these interrelations made it possible to predict the powder behaviour in the handling apparatus directly on basis of the particle properties.

    Notes: Ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) is an alternative fuel oxygenate that can be produced in the liquid phase by addition of ethanol to isobutene catalyzed by sulfonic acid ion exchange resins. A generalized Langmuir-Hinshelwood rate expression is formulated in terms of the liquid phase activities of the reactants that is quasi-autocatalytic due to ethanol. This microkinetic model is combined with the generalized Maxwell-Stefan equations for a detailed investigation of the influence of multicomponent mass transfer limitations inside the macropores of the heterogeneous catalyst. The model is used for revision of experimental rate data for ETBE synthesis in the literature. The analysis reveals that reverse diffusion of isobutene can occur by strong interaction with ethanol and the catalyst effectiveness factor can exceed unity.
