Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for producing an olefin with a high yield for a short reaction time in a dehydration reaction of an aliphatic alcohol. The present invention provides a method for producing an olefin, including subjecting an aliphatic alcohol having 6 or more carbon atoms to a dehydration reaction in the presence of an aluminum oxide catalyst, wherein an average pore diameter of the aluminum oxide catalyst is 12.5 nm or more and 20.0 nm or less.
