Method of producing porous molded body

A method of producing a porous molded body from an emulsion including a continuous phase and a dispersed phase, the method comprising:

• a film forming step of forming a film on a support from the emulsion including a water phase containing a curable compound as the continuous phase;
• a curing step of curing the curable compound after the film forming step;
• and
• a dispersed phase removal step of removing the dispersed phase of the film after the curing step,
• wherein in the emulsion, in a case where a volume of the dispersed phase is X1 and a volume of the continuous phase is X2, a value of X1/(X1+X2) is within a range of 0.5 or more and 0.9 or less, and a specific gravity of the dispersed phase is greater than a specific gravity of the continuous phase.
