Abstract
A method for producing (meth)acrylic acid comprising: a step of obtaining a (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas by subjecting a (meth)acrylic acid production raw material to a catalytic gas phase oxidation reaction; a step of obtaining a (meth)acrylic acid-containing liquid by bringing the (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas into contact with a collection solvent and/or condensing the (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas by cooling; a step of obtaining crude (meth)acrylic acid by introducing the (meth)acrylic acid-containing liquid into a low-boiling separation column; a step of obtaining purified (meth)acrylic acid and a refining residue containing a glyoxal compound by purifying the crude (meth)acrylic acid; and a step of returning at least a part of the refining residue to the low-boiling separation column; wherein a returning position of the refining residue to the low-boiling separation column is located closer to a bottom side of the low-boiling separation column than a supply port of the (meth)acrylic acid-containing liquid.
