A novel process can be used for preparing methacrylates, such as methacrylic acid and/or alkyl methacrylates, especially MMA. The process allows for prolonging of the catalyst service life and an increase in efficiency of the methacrylate preparation based on C2 or C4 raw materials, especially when proceeding from isobutylene or tort-butanol or ethylene as raw material. The process allows for performance for longer periods without disruption, with constant or even increased activities and selectivities. This gives rise to the possibility of performing such processes in a very simple, economically viable, and environmentally benign manner. In addition, it has been possible to minimize known safety risks that emanate from the methacrolein intermediate.
