Abstract
A method for producing alkyl tertiary alkyl ether involves supplying a feed including isoolefins, alcohols, and dialkyl sulfides into a feed zone of a reactor; contacting the feed with a catalyst material in the reaction zone; and catalytically reacting the isooolefins and alcohols under conditions which favor forming resultant ether and inhibiting reaction of dialkyl sulfides with the catalyst material.
