The solution is subjected to heat treatment above 100.degree. C., so that the carboxylic acid ester decomposes almost completely into carboxylic acid and alcohol. The invention further relates to a use of the process according to the invention for the production of a solution for peritoneal dialysis and a medicinal infusion or dialysis solution.
