The invention provides a method for separating and purifying phytase with simpleness and high efficiency. The method comprises the following steps of: centrifugating fermentation liquor producing the phytase by a centrifuge, collecting supernatant, utilizing substrate applied by the phytase, namely phytic acid (or phytate), as affinity chromatography adsorbent, directly adding the phytic acid (or phytate) into the supernatant, stirring fully and evenly, and absorbing phytic acid (or phytate) and the phytase with specificity. Due to strong sequestering power, the phytic acid (or phytate) generally forms insoluble salts with minerals of calcium, magnesium, sodium, zinc, iron, copper, manganese and the like. At the moment, the adding of inorganic salt containing the metal ions can precipitate the combined body of phytic acid and phytase, and the precipitates can be collected by the centrifuge and is dried by a drier so as to obtain the preparation of phytase powder. The method has the advantages of simple and convenient separation and purification, high yield, high purity, low cost and the like.
