In the manufacture of the title ethers from MeOH and CM isoolefins, formation of Me20 is significantly lowered by adsorbing MezO and unreacted MeOH from the reactor effluent on beds of silica gel and zeolite 13X, desorbing MezO from the zeolite and MeOH from the silica, and recycling them to the reactor in feed concentrations of 2 5 ppm MezO and L 50 ppm unreacted MeOH, shifting the equilibrium of MeOH dehydration.

SOz is removed from flue gases from HzSOb-manufacturing plants or coal-fired power plants, etc., by passing the gas through 2 2 pressure-swing adsorption towers in which the SOz-containing feed gas is contacted with a high silica-containing porous adsorbent (e.g., ZSM-5 zeolite) to adsorb SOz. The spent adsorbent is then regenerated by desorption under reduced pressure; the desorbed SOz can be concentrated and recovered as a byproduct.
