A process for producing inorganic spheres, which comprises injecting an
aqueous liquid containing an inorganic compound into a laminar flow of an
organic liquid which runs at a flow rate of from 0.001 to 2 m/s in a flow
path compartmentalized by a partition wall through a plurality of inlet
holes formed in one partition wall to form a W/O type emulsion containing
the organic liquid as a dispersion medium and the aqueous liquid
containing the inorganic compound as a dispersed phase, and solidifying
the aqueous liquid containing an inorganic compound in the W/O type
emulsion, wherein the partition wall having a plurality of inlet holes is
made of a metal sheet having a surface subjected to water repellent
treatment.
