摘要

The process of absorption of heavy metals present in liquu00ecdos through the use of fungi of the genus Pleurotus.The present invention provides a process for the removal of heavy metals from liquids and / or contaminated water, from the use of a biomass composed of fungi of the genus Pleurotus spp. for removal of metals such as copper, iron, aluminum, zinc, nickel and chromium by bioadsor Tion of the same.Heavy metals, as mentioned, are among the most common pollutants found in industrial effluents and may be toxic, carcinogenic or mutagenic, even at low concentrations. The process of the present invention is a biological treatment alternative and economically viable for both recovery of the effluent and recovery of metal goods.
