Shaped bodies of macroporous, strongly acidic or basic ion exchanger resin in the form of packing such as Raschig rings, Berl saddles, torus saddles, packing rings with a web or cross bar, Pall rings, other hollow bodies, hollow spheres and the like having a hollow space fraction of 5 to 95 % by volume of the macroform without pores, a BET surface area from 0.01 to 1,000 and preferably 20 to 600 m<2>/g and an exchange capacity from 0.05 to 10 and preferably 3 to 6 meq/g, are used as a catalytically active packing for chemical reactions, especially etherification, hydration, dimerisation, oligomerisation, esterification, hydrogenation or alkylation, or combinations thereof. By means of simultaneously applied separation operations such as adsorption, absorption, extraction, stripping, distillation, rectification, fractionation, membrane processes or the like, a combination of a chemical reaction with a simultaneous separation of the components of the reaction mixture in one apparatus is achieved. In one of the examples, methanol and isobutene are reacted to give methyl tert.-butyl ether (MTBE), using Raschig rings of strongly acidic macroporous divinylbenzene/styrene copolymer. |
