Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing methionine enabling efficient recovery and use of ammonia from a gas generated by concentrating a mother liquor. This production method comprises a recovery step of introducing a gas generated in a mother liquor concentration step into a gas washing tower in which water is recycled and bringing the gas into contact with the water to recover ammonia contained in the gas, and a ratio of flow of the water to flow of the gas introduced into the gas washing tower is 2 or more in terms of mass ratio. The water discharged from the gas washing tower is preferably cooled before introduction into the gas washing tower.
