The term biosorption describes the passive (i.e. not metabolically mediated) binding of heavy metals by dead or living biomass. The term bioaccumulation, on the other hand, refers to active processes which require the metabolic activity of living organisms. Biosorption can be employed to eliminate heavy metals from industrial effluents (e.g.

Biosorption of Pharmaceutical Pollutant
2015The adsorption of penicillin onto dried biomass was studied as a function of initial penicillin concentration and temperature. The maximum penicillin adsorption yield was obtained at the temperature of 30 °C; the equilibrium uptake increased with increasing initial penicillin concentration.
