Abstract
The present invention provides a method for effectively preventing the precipitation related to manganese acetate in the pipe for sending a polymerization inhibitor and the like, and the polymerization of (meth)acrylic acid. A first method of the present invention for producing (meth)acrylic acid, characterized in comprising steps of: producing a (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas by catalytic vapor phase oxidation reaction; and obtaining a (meth)acrylic acid-containing fluid by providing the (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas into a condensation column or an absorption column; wherein manganese acetate is used as a polymerization inhibitor; manganese acetate is dissolved into a (meth)acrylic acid aqueous solution containing not more than 10% by mass of (meth)acrylic acid, and the like, to obtain a manganese acetate aqueous solution; and the manganese acetate aqueous solution is provided into the condensation column or the absorption column.
