The importance of lithium resources has gradually increased with the research and
promotion of lithium batteries. Lithium extraction from salt lake has become a major trend …

Membranes offer a scalable and cost-effective approach to ion separations for lithium
recovery. In the case of salt-lake brines, however, the high feed salinity and low pH of the …

To decarbonize our global energy system, sustainably harvesting metals from diverse
sourcewaters is essential. Membrane-based processes have recently shown great promise …

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), a series of crystalline materials with ordered
nanopores, are highly desirable for ultrafast and selective nanofiltration. However, COF …

Conventional continuum models for ion transport across polyamide membranes require
solving partial differential equations (PDEs). These models typically introduce a host of …

Desalination brine mining emerges as a solution to supply raw materials to the European
Union industry in a circular economy approach since valuable minerals and metals (eg, B …

Textile industry is one of the major water-consuming sectors; therefore, developing methods
for reusing water is essential. Processes including reverse osmosis (RO) have gained …

Nowadays, small remote islands rely heavily on desalination technologies to overcome
freshwater scarcity. Unfortunately, these technologies are accompanied by the production of …

The design and understanding of rejection mechanisms for both positively and negatively
charged nanofiltration (NF) membranes are needed for the development of highly selective …

Many materials essential to the European Union's (EU) economy lack primary resources,
and the major suppliers of these materials are non-EU nations. It has been determined that …
