An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing an ether compound easily in a small number of steps at lower costs in high yields. The present invention relates to a method in which the ether compound represented by the general formula (1) is produced by reacting the specific carbonyl compound specified in the general formula (2) and the specific dialkoxy compound specified in the general formula (3) with hydrogen in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst and an acidic substance to perform hydrogenation. ##STR00001##

Integrations of carbon monoxide electrolyzers and chlor-alkali electrolyzers are disclosed herein. The disclosed integrations include novel process chains for the valorization of oxocarbons into hydrochloric acid, vinyl chloride, vinyl acetate, ethylene oxide, and other useful chemicals. The disclosed integrations further include novel ways to operate the electrolyzers in tandem to increase the efficiency of both reactors. This disclosure also includes novel ways to balance the operation of both electrolyzers to assure they are operating at an optimal level to take advantage of the benefits of the disclosed integrations.
