An aqueous titanium oxysulfate solution was prepared by dissolving 3388 g of a titanium oxysulfate (trade name: TM Crystal, having an appearance of white solids, manufactured by Tayca Corp.) in 2258 g of ion-exchange water. Into the above-prepared aqueous titanium oxysulfate solution, a 1479 g of an aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution (31% by weight) was added while cooling with ice, to obtain a rose-colored mixture. Into a reaction vessel equipped with a pH electrode and a pH controller that is connected to the pH electrode so that the pH of a mixture in the vessel is controlled by adding a 25% by weight of an ammonia water (extra-pure grade, manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), 4700 g of ion-exchange water was introduced. The pH controller was set to pH 4. The supplying rate of the ammonia water was set to 50 ml/min. In the reaction vessel, when pH of the mixture in the vessel becomes lower than the set value, the ammonia water starts to be supplied and is continuously supplied at the above-set supplying rate until pH reaches the pH-set value. While stirring at 145 rpm, the above-obtained mixture was added to the reaction vessel at a rate of 50 ml/min, to react the titanium oxysulfate with the ammonia water that was supplied by the pH controller. At this time, the reaction temperature was in the range of from 23° C. to 51° C. The resulting mixture was maintained for one (1) hour while stirring, and then a 25% by weight of an ammonia water (extra-pure grade, manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was further added thereto, to obtain a slurry. The total amount of the ammonia water added to the reaction vessel was 3690 g, which is twice as much as the amount required for conversion of the titanium oxysulfate to a titanium hydroxide. The slurry was filtered, and the resulting solid was rinsed with ion-exchange water, was dried, and was calcined at a temperature of 350° C. in air for 8 hours. The solid then was cooled down to a room temperature (about 20° C.), to obtain a granular titanium oxide. The titanium oxide had a crystal structure of anatase and a water content of 15% by weight.
