Abstract

T-Butyl alcohol is produced by reacting isobutylene with an aqueous organic acid solution in the presence of an acidic ion-exchanger. t-Butyl alcohol can be produced by this process from a mixed gas containing isobutylene and n-butene. The process is also applicable for separation of isobutylene from a mixed gas containing isobutylene and n-butene.
