可能である。An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The methacrylic acid aqueous solution is introduced into the dehydration distillation column (A) via the conduit 1. In the dehydration distillation column, an azeotropic solvent is introduced from the conduit 3 as necessary, and an azeotropic solvent, a polymerization inhibitor, water and a portion of methacrylic acid-containing top gas are generated from the top of the column by azeotropic dehydration distillation. This is cooled to obtain an overhead distillate. The distillate is separated into two phases, an organic solvent phase and an aqueous phase. The organic solvent phase containing methacrylic acid (azeotropic solvent phase) is refluxed by the conduit 4, and all aqueous phases are discharged out of the system via the conduit 5. Is done. The bottom liquid of the dehydration distillation column is introduced into the methacrylic acid purification step through the conduit 6. At this time, the water concentration in the bottom liquid is controlled by the reflux amount of the azeotropic solvent. The reflux amount of the azeotropic solvent is determined from the azeotropic composition of water and the azeotropic solvent, and it is possible to perform dehydration distillation until the mass concentration of water in the bottom liquid is 0.01% or less.

性体の混合物いずれを用いてもよい。The azeotropic solvent which forms an azeotropic mixture with water used in the present invention is preferably one which gives an azeotropic point lower than the azeotropic point of water-methacrylic acid and can be separated from water quickly. For example, toluene, ethylbenzene, heptane, hexane, xylene, a mixture thereof and the like can be mentioned, but xylene is particularly preferable. As xylene
Any of o-xylene, m-xylene, p-xylene or a mixture of these isomers may be used.

リル酸量を削減することができる。By using these azeotropic solvents,
The azeotrope of water-methacrylic acid is suppressed. Therefore, when an azeotropic dehydration distillation column is used, the mass concentration of methacrylic acid contained in the distillate at the top of the azeotropic dehydration distillation column is reduced, and the distillate is entrained in the phase-separated aqueous phase. The amount of methacrylic acid discharged to the outside can be reduced.

うことができる。Since the azeotropic solvent has a lower azeotropic boiling point with water than the azeotropic boiling point of water-methacrylic acid, the azeotropic dehydration distillation column is operated at a lower operating temperature than when methacrylic acid is used as the azeotropic solvent. The methacrylic acid, which can be operated and is extremely polymerizable, can be subjected to dehydration distillation without exposing it to high temperatures. Furthermore, since the N-oxyl compound used as a polymerization inhibitor is returned to the column together with the azeotropic solvent, even in an azeotropic separation column in which polymerization of methacrylic acid is extremely likely to occur due to the inclusion of water or other acids, In order to sufficiently exhibit a stabilizing effect with a small amount used without requiring a large amount of polymerization inhibitor,
The operation of purifying methacrylic acid can be stably performed over a long period of time.

Even when used in combination with another polymerization inhibitor, for example, a phenolic polymerization inhibitor, a more excellent polymerization prevention effect may be obtained due to the synergistic effect of these polymerization inhibitors.

As the molecular oxygen, oxygen itself or a substance diluted with an inert gas such as nitrogen may be used, but a method using air is economically preferable. Regarding the method of supplying molecular oxygen, it is common to indirectly mix molecular oxygen into methacrylic acid by bubbling from the bottom of a distillation column or a stripper, or from a reboiler.
The molecular oxygen is 0.1 to 0.1 with respect to the distillation vapor amount of methacrylic acid.
It is preferable to supply about 1.0% by volume.
