An object of the invention is to provide a production method for
(meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid which can continue an operation
without causing a decomposition reaction of acrolein or the
like.According to the invention, provided is a production method for
(meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid, in which (meth)acrolein or (meth)
acrylic acid is obtained by performing a catalytic gas phase oxidation on
propylene, propane or isobutylene by using oxygen by means of a
heat-exchange type multi-tubular reactor, having a tube bundle portion in
which a multiple of reaction tubes each filled with a catalyst are
aligned in parallel to one another and a tube plate which is adjacent to
a downstream side of the tube bundle portion of the reaction tubes and
forms a lead-out portion for a reaction gas, in which the tube bundle
portion of the reaction tubes has a hollow-columnar constitution as a
whole, and which is characterized in that a rectifier is provided on a
tube plate.
