In order to obtain acetylene of high purity from the burner gas formed by partial oxidation of methane there may be encountered such a practical problem as the removal of various higher derivatives of acetylene containing in small amounts.Our determinations of the solubilities of diacetylene, its representative, in methanol and methanol-water solvents indicated that acetylene could be separated from diacetylene in such a simple manner as an addition of water to methanol.
