Synthesis of ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) from ethanol (EtOH) and tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) in the liquid phase was studied by using ion exchange resin, Amberlyst 15 ( A X ) in the H+ form and heteropoly acid, H0,5Cs3,5SiW12040(HPA). Experiments were carried out in a stirred batch reactor with diffe
