Abstract: | This study deals with the flocculability of two types of metal ions byBacillus mucilaginosus GY03 Strain, with an emphasis on the influence of pH conditions, volume and time of flocculants produced by GY03 Strain on
the adsorption of metal irons such as Pb2+ and Mn2+ and the capabilities of flocculants to adsorb metal ions of different concentrations. The results showed that microbial flocculants
produced byBacillus mucilaginosus GY03 Strain are highly capable of flocculating metal ions, but show different effectiveness with respect to the adsorption
of Pb2+ and Mn2+. In accordance with the experimental data and actual waste-water treatment conditions, the relevant regression equation of
flocculation has been deduced, which has found some application in practice. The experimental results of this study demonstrated
that microbial flocculants produced byBacillus mucilaginosus can be used to treat metallic ion-containing waste water. In practical application the volume of microbial flocculants required
and flocculation conditions should be taken into comprehensive consideration in accordance with the properties of metal ions,
the composition of anions and the solubility of other metals, in combination with the cost and effectiveness of flocculants
to be used. Flocculant used in this experiment has the advantages of being applied over a wide range of pH values, small flocculant
volume, and rapid speed of flocculation. So this kind of flocculant is within excellent prospect of application.
