Abstract
The present invention provides: a process can be preventive of a polymerization in a distillation apparatus when distilling a solution containing easily polymerizable substances such as (meth)acrylic acid and (meth)acrylic acid ester. In the distillation process for an easily polymerizable substance-containing solution which includes the step of distilling an easily polymerizable substance-containing solution by a distillation column equipped with a condenser for condensation at a vapor outlet of the distillation column, at least one condenser for polymerization inhibition is further placed in series on a vapor outlet side of the condenser for condensation, and the easily polymerizable substance which is contained in vapor from an upstream condenser is condensed by a downstream condenser.
