In a container 10, a first electrode 11 containing a first electrically conductive material capable of adsorbing an ion and a second electrode 12 containing a second electrically conductive material capable of adsorbing an ion are immersed in a liquid (aqueous solution 13) containing at least one type of ion other than hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion. Then a voltage is applied between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 12 so that the first electrode 11 serves as an anode. This voltage application allows the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 12 to adsorb anions and cations contained in the aqueous solution 13, respectively. In this ion adsorption step, the aqueous solution 13 is treated by a batch method. The voltage to be applied is higher than a voltage that causes electrolysis of a solvent of the solution, assuming that no voltage drop is caused by the liquid (aqueous solution 13).
