The invention relates to a method for extracting algin from fresh Sargassum fusiforme. The method comprises the following steps of dye fixation, water washing, fragmentation, enzymatic hydrolysis, transformation, coarse filtration, dilution, foaming and floating, fine filtration, acidification bleaching, dehydration, solid phase transformation, granulation, finishing and drying. The method provided by the invention has the advantages that 1, an enzymatic hydrolysis technology is adopted and thus the problem that algin is difficultly extracted from Sargassum fusiforme is solved; and fresh Sargassum fusiforme is used as a raw material for production of low-viscosity and ultralow-viscosity algin and thus a raw material source range of algin processing is widened; 2, an acidification technology replaces the traditional calcification technology and thus the problems of high calcium content, poor water-solubility and high insoluble substance content of the traditional algin are improved; and 3, a NaClO solution is dropwisely added into an extraction system during acidification to realize bleaching and thus the traditional bleaching technology characterized in that chlorine is fed into an algin solution subjected to fine filtration to realize bleaching is modified so that bleaching effects are better and technical processes are safer.
