A PROCESS FOR MAKING ANHYDROUS ALCOHOLIC SOLUTIONS OF ALKALI METAL ALCOHOLATES FROM WHICH SAID ALCOHOLATE MAY BE EASILY ISOLATED WHICH COMPRISES FORCING A LIQUID MONOHYDRIC AOCOHOL CONTAINING AT LEAST 2 CARBON ATOMS TO RISE THROUGH A BED OF SOLID PARTICLES OF ONE OF THE ALKALIES SODIUM HYDROXIDE AND POTASSIUM HYDROXIDE AT A TEMPERATURE BETWEEN 70* AND 200*C. AT WHICH THE ALCOHOL IS LIQUID, AND RECOVERING AN ALCOHOL SOLUTION OF THE ANHYDROUS ALKALI METAL ALCOHOLATE OVERHEAD, WHILE DRAWING OFF CONCENTRATED AQUEOUS ALKALI METAL HYDROXIDE FROM BENEATH THE SAID BED, AND MAINTAINING THE SAID BED AT SUBSTANTIALLY CONSTANT VOLUME BY ADDITION OF SOLID ALKAI TO REPLACE THAT WHICH IS CONSUMED AND WITHDRAWN.
