A water purifier consisting essentially of manganese dioxide particles having a 20 to 48 mesh size and macroscopic pores which are so large in size as to permit passage of water therethrough. The particles may have active sites of needle-like or columnar crystals of manganese dioxide on the surfaces

A water purifier consisting essentially of manganese dioxide particles having a 20 to 48 mesh size and macroscopic pores which are so large in size as to permit passage of water therethrough. The particles may have active sites of needle-like or columnar crystals of manganese dioxide on the surfaces thereof. A method for making such water purifier is also described.

A method for making a water purifier of manganese dioxide particles having macroscopic pores adapted to use in the purification of water, the method comprising immersing starting manganese dioxide powder in an acidic solution comprising from 5 to 80 g/liter of divalent manganese ions and from 5 to 1

A method for making a water purifier of manganese dioxide particles having macroscopic pores adapted to use in the purification of water, the method comprising immersing starting manganese dioxide powder in an acidic solution comprising from 5 to 80 g/liter of divalent manganese ions and from 5 to 100 g/l of an acid for a term of over 2 days at a temperature of from 80°to 100°C., reducing the resulting manganese dioxide mass into pieces, classifying the pieces to have a size of from 20 to 48 mesh, and neutralizing the pieces with an alkali whereby manganese dioxide particles having macroscopic pores through which water is able to pass and needle-like or columnar crystals on the surfaces thereof are obtained.
