To provide an apparatus for producing carbon black by which the carbon black having a small mix rate of grit can industrially efficiently be produced; and to provide a method for producing the carbon black.

Each nozzle 21 has two or more exhaust nozzles 31, and the exhaust nozzles 31 are arranged in the direction crossing the flow direction of a high-temperature combustion gas flow when forming the carbon black by exhausting stock oil from the two or more nozzles 21 symmetrically arranged in the high-temperature combustion gas flow. Preferably, the two or more exhaust nozzles 31 are linearly arranged in the direction orthogonal to the flow direction of the high-temperature combustion gas flow.
