Abstract
Three types of a modified biopolymer based on the mycelium of Penicillium chrysogenum were evaluated as to their sorption characteristics for Hg2+, Pb2+, Cu2+ and Cd2+. Their useful and total sorption capacities were calculated from their respective breakthrough curves. The highest sorption capacity was recorded for Hg2+. Evidence is presented that the retained metals can be easily eluted with diluted mineral acids.
