Abstract

According to the present invention, there are provided a high boiling point material separating column A and a diphenyl carbonate purifying column B each comprising a continuous multi-stage distillation column having specified structures, and there is provided a specific process that enables a high-purity diphenyl carbonate which is important as a raw material of a high-quality and high-performance polycarbonate to be produced stably for a prolonged period of time on an industrial scale of not less than 1 ton/hr from a reaction mixture containing the diphenyl carbonate using an apparatus in which these two continuous multi-stage distillation columns are connected together.
