Abstract
Provided is a porous membrane that can be manufactured in uncomplicated steps, has high hydrophilicity and water permeability, and exhibits excellent anti-fouling properties when used in a membrane bioreactor method (MBR method). The porous membrane of the present invention is a porous membrane containing polymer (A) and polymer (B), wherein the polymer (A) is a membrane-forming polymer, the polymer (B) is a polymer having a unit (b1) represented by formula (1) and a unit (b2) based on hydroxyl group-containing (meth)acrylate, and the concentration (mass %) of the unit (b1) is equal to or higher than the concentration (mass %) of the unit (b2) in the porous membrane.
