FIELD: industrial organic synthesis and chemical engineering. SUBSTANCE: invention relates to synthesis of 1,4-butinediol from formaldehyde and acetylene. Rectification of by-product containing methanol, water, and traces of formaldehyde and formic acid is proposed to be carried out on 25-30 theoretical tray column at still pressure 400-1300 mm Hg, still-top pressure difference 100-400 mm Hg, and temperature difference between top and 5-8th tray 25-35 C. Separation agent is used, in particular, saturated and unsaturated aliphatic C3-C5-alcohols (e.g. propanol, butanol, amyl alcohol, propargyl alcohol) at weight ratio of separation agent to formaldehyde plus formic acid from 0.2:1 to 4:1. Desired methanol is isolated at the top of column and aqueous methanol with formic acid and separation agent admixture at the bottom. EFFECT: improved purity of 1,4-butinediol and reduced power consumption. 13 ex
