... Abstract: Due to the ban of MTBE in California Petrobras decided to adapt its MTBE units to produce isooctane and / or isooctene, a valueable gasoline component. As Petrobras has 4 MTBE units and as Brazilian legislation doesn't allow the addition of MTBE into gasoline, the production of MTBE...

... Abstract. Problems of pollution and energy supply have led in the past few years to the exploration of new fuel components, all over the world. Among these, the MTBE produced from isobutylene and methanol seems to be one of the most promising ones. The presently known practical production...

... a worldwide reality wherever air quality improvement is needed, through the development of MTBE, TAME and C7-C8 methyl-ethers produced from petrochemical plants, refineries and large dedicated plants. The MTBE production capacity, on stream in the second half of this decade, will reach about 27 million tons...

Western European and Far East countries are being forced to destroy by Co-cracking increasing amounts of crude C, streams containing butadiene and isobutene. Simultaneously, demand is very strong for MTBE owing to the growth of unleaded gasoline...

... the addition of oxygenates, growing demands for reducing olefin and aromatic levels in motor gasoline have begun to be heard in both areas. One of the most economic methods of achieving this is to produce oxygenates from all potential tertiary olefins produced in FCC units. MTBE production based on FCC...

... Abstract. Part 1: ETBE and TAEE: an industrial experience. The results of two temporary revampings in ETBE mode of the Elf-Feyzin commercial MTBE unit has led to a longer revamping of this unit since April 1993, giving IFP and Elf a unique industrial experience. Crude ETBE from bio-ethanol...

... an oxygenate in gasoline supply in specific regions of the country. Oxygenates used are either ethanol or MTBE. Recently, MTBE has been found as a contaminant in groundwater and 17 states have banned its use. Additionally, the federal government is considering new energy legislation that among other things...

... Abstract A significant increase in ethanol production has been observed in recent years due to the implementation of the Brazilian Alcohol Program, the Kyoto Protocol and the replacement of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in some countries. The world’s largest producers of ethanol...
