1. A process for olefin metathesis in a loop reactor, comprising:
circulating, in the loop reactor, a liquid reaction medium comprising a first reactant olefin and a homogeneous metathesis catalyst system; and
reacting, in the loop reactor, the first reactant olefin in a presence of the homogeneous metathesis catalyst system to form, in the liquid reaction medium, a metathesis product comprising a first product olefin.
