This review provides a comprehensive overview of published hydrometallurgical chemical
processes capable of separating americium from curium and the lanthanides. A search for …

The hydrometallurgical separation concepts for the heterogeneous recycling of irradiated
nuclear fuel developed in Europe are presented and discussed. Most of these concepts …

Partitioning of americium from lanthanides (Ln) present in used nuclear fuel plays a key role
in the sustainable development of nuclear energy,–. This task is extremely challenging …

Heterogeneous activation of peroxydisulfate (PDS) by transition metal oxides offers a
promising strategy for organic pollutants removal but suffers from low electron transfer …

Trivalent copper complexes are active intermediates in aquatic redox reactions that involve
copper ions or structural copper, but their reactivity and selectivity toward pollutants remain …

Covalency is often considered to be an influential factor in driving An3+ vs. Ln3+ selectivity
invoked by soft donor ligands. This is intensely debated, particularly the extent to which …

The realization of employment of two surfactants in organic transformation comes from the
intensity on achievement of better results with lower concentrations of individual surfactants …

There is significant interest in ligands that can stabilize actinide ions in oxidation states that
can be exploited to chemically differentiate 5f and 4f elements. Applications range from …

In this study, magnesium and coconut shell carbon (CSC) were prepared by a ball milled
process and used for water disinfection with adsorbing tiny amounts of copper (II). Dissolved …

Astatine is one of the least chemically studied elements and its behavior in the presence of
non-conventional solvents has not been investigated before. This work considers both …
