Abstract: Provided is a purification material capable of highly efficiently removing contaminant components from water. A water purification material has a composition represented by a mixing ratio of zeolite, ferric hydroxide, activated carbon, titanium oxide, and magnesium hydroxide of 6 to 7:1 to 2:0.5 to 1:0.01 to 0.05:0.01 to 0.10 in terms of weight ratio.

Abstract: Provided is a purifying material capable of highly efficiently removing contaminant components from wastewater. A water purifying material having a composition of 30 to 40% total iron, 1 to 5% titanium, 0.1 to 1% magnesium, and 0.1 to 0.8% silica (silicon), and a method for manufacturing the water purifying material including: adding caustic soda to a solution containing 200 to 100 mg/L of bivalent iron, 20 to 100 mg/L of titanium ions, 5 to 50 mg/L of magnesium, and 3 to 30 mg/L of silica under conditions of 30 to 50° C. and pH 6.8 to 7.2 to carry out neutralization and reaction; separating and collecting an obtained solid at 100° C. or less; and drying the collected solid.
