Synthesis of the Biofuel Additive 1,1-Diethoxybutane in a Fixed-Bed Column with Amberlyst-15 Wet

The synthesis of 1,1-diethoxybutane (DEB) through the acetalization reaction between ethanol and butyraldehyde was studied in a fixed-bed adsorptive reactor packed with Amberlyst-15 wet. The miscibilities of reactants and water were evaluated and breakthrough experiments with nonreactive pairs of et...
