The invention relates to a mould biosorbent and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of environment governance. The biosorbent is mycelial
pellets formed by winding mould mycelia, wherein the
diameter thereof is about 2.0mm, and the mycelial
pellets have
uniform size and certain
mechanical strength. The preparation method comprises the following steps: taking food production waste water as a culture medium, inoculating a mould
spore suspension under the sterilized or non-sterilized condition of pH 3.5-6.5, shaking culturing for 60-72h at 28-35 DEG C and at the speed of 150-200rpm, and filtering the collected mycelial
pellets to obtain the mould biosorbent. The mould biosorbent prepared in the invention has low cost and simple preparation process, has good adsorbing and decoloring effects on reactive dyes, reducible dyes, disperse dyes, direct dyes,
sulfur dyes and the like, can also be used for removing
metal ions in the waste water, and has the characteristics of economy, high efficiency, easy
solid-liquid separation, no secondary
pollution, capability of recovering the
metal ions, environment friendliness and the like.
