This report presents a thorough cost evaluation of the production of Methyl tert-butyl ether via the direct addition of methanol to isobutylene. The process involves mixing methanol and isobutylene in a reaction unit and heating the mixture in the presence of sulfonated ion exchange resins acting as catalysts. The effluents are distilled, with MTBE being the bottom product which is further purified.
The project economic analysis provided in the report discusses a Germany-based plant:
