Ethylene carbonate having a highly reduced content of especially diols is provided. A process for purifying ethylene carbonate, including falling crude ethylene carbonate crystals from an upper portion of a tower, melting the crude ethylene carbonate crystal in a bottom portion of the tower, withdrawing a part of the obtained melt from the tower, and flowing the remainder of the obtained melt as a reflux liquid upward for countercurrent contact with the falling crude ethylene carbonate crystals, characterized in that a solid-liquid countercurrent contact region maintained at a constant temperature is formed. |
