Ikke-levende biomassereaktionsprodukt med evne til optagelse af metalkationer fra vandige opløsninger, fremgangsmåde til fremstilling deraf samt dets anvendelse

摘要

A relatively solid, stable biomass reaction product is provided produced from microorganisms having metal uptake properties when contacted by an aqueous solution containing metal cations. The biomass reaction product is produced by treating cells thereof with a caustic solution, whereby the biomass reaction product after drying is characterized in the particulate state of having substantially enhanced uptake of metal cations from aqueous solutions as compared to the metal uptake property of the microorganism before treatment.
