Abstract

A simple and excellent process for the regeneration of heteropolyacid catalysts can be provided. A heteropolyacid catalyst, e.g. a phosphomolybdic acid catalyst, whose activity has been lowered can be regenerated by dissolving and/or suspending it in an aqueous medium and then treating with an inorganic ion-exchange material, e.g. crystalline antimonic acid.
