In this study, the kinetics for reaction of tert-butanol esterification with acetic acid in presence Dowex 50Wx8 catalyst was investigated. The kinetic experiments were conducted 1000 milliliter vessel at temperatures ranged from 50 - 80 oC, loading 25-50 g/L, and molar ratios to 1/3 – 3/1. rate found increase increasing temperature loading. It also conversion increases as ratio alcohol Non-ide...

The mechanism of the low temperature oxidation of gaseous acetaldehyde was investigated in the temperature range of 1 50-400?°C. The minor, intermediate and major products were identified and measured quantitatively by sampling directly into the ionization chamber of an MS10-C2 mass spectrometer from the reactor. The formation of H2O, CO, CO2, HCOOH, H2, HCHO, CH3COOH and CH3OH as the major pro...
