The present invention relates to a method for one-step regulation of a pore structure and surface properties of a silicon carbide (SiC) membrane. The method comprises: first, fully mixing SiC powder with a sintering aid, and then synergistically regulating a pore structure and surface wetting properties of a SiC membrane by controlling a molding pressure and a sintering condition.
