The present invention relates to a p-methoxystyrene synthesis process, specifically to production of p-methoxystyrene through gas-solid phase catalysis dehydration of p-methoxyphenethyl alcohol. The synthesis process is a continuous production process, and specifically comprises that: p-methoxyphenethyl alcohol is sucked through a water circulation vacuum pump, the feeding amount is adjusted through an adjustment valve, vaporization is performed with a vaporization device, the obtained material enters a reactor, a catalysis dehydration reaction is performed at a temperature of 275 DEG C, the obtained reaction gas is condensed into a liquid, and the liquid enters a product receiver. According to the present invention, the process has characteristics of simple process, mild process conditions, safe operation, single raw material and product, high selectivity, high yield, no by-product emission, low environmental pollution, simple structure of the required equipment, application of ordinary carbon steel, and no special requirement.
