A silicon carbide-based porous article comprising silicon carbide particles as an aggregate, metallic silicon and an aggregate derived from siliceous inorganic particles to form pores through volume shrinkage by heat treatment, wherein the porosity is 45 to 70%, and the average pore diameter is 10 to 20 mum is provided. Also provided is a method for producing a silicon carbide-based porous article, comprising; adding inorganic particles to form pores through volume shrinkage by heat treatment to a raw-material mixture containing silicon carbide particles and metallic silicon, then forming into an intended shape, calcinating and firing the resultant green body, forming pores through volume shrinkage of the inorganic particles by heat treatment, and the shrunk inorganic particles being present as an aggregate in the porous article.
