  • Patent number: 9637422
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of preparing isobutene in which high-purity isobutene is separated (prepared) from a C4 mixture by cracking glycol ether prepared from a C4 mixture (in particular, C4 raffinate-1) containing isobutene and a glycol. The method includes cracking glycol ether into isobutene and glycol at a temperature between 50° C. and 300° C. in the presence of a strongly acidic catalyst. The glycol ether may be prepared by reaction between a C4 mixture containing isobutene and glycol in the presence of an acid catalyst.

  • Patent number: 8766015
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of preparing a glycol mono-tertiary-butyl ether compound using a C4 hydrocarbon mixture containing isobutene and a glycol compound as reactants, in which a glycol di-tertiary-butyl ether compound as a byproduct is decomposed into isobutene and a glycol compound and the obtained isobutene and glycol compound are recycled as reactants, whereby product yield per unit raw material may be maximized.
