The demand for valuable metals such as rare earth elements and platinum group metals is
rising fast in the context of the depletion of natural resources and international conflicts …

The extensive use of nuclear energy and the rapid development of the nuclear industry have
produced a large amount of harmful radionuclide-containing wastewater, and bentonite …

This study developed a ligand-based composite adsorbent (ComA) for efficient Ytterbium
(Yb (III)) adsorption and recovery from waste samples. The organic ligand of 1E, 1E, 1``E …

We studied the mechanism underlying the solid-phase adsorption of a heavy rare-earth
element (HREE, Yb) from acidic solutions employing MCM-22 zeolite, serving as both a …

Advanced materials for the efficient treatment of textile wastewater need to be developed for
the sustainable growth of the textile industry. In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was …

The removal of rare earth elements in mineral processing wastewater is highly desirable but
still challenging. In this study, three bimetallic Prussian blue analogues (PBA) and six …

Heavy metal pollution of agricultural and urban soils limits economic progress in the rapidly
developing society. Terahertz technology is applied to detect heavy metal pollutants under …

This work reports the formation of a novel adsorbent, prepared by activating bentonite with
cinnamic acid, which is highly efficient to remove dyes from wastewater. The adsorption …

Contamination of heavy metals has always been a pressing concern. The dry-wet alternately
treated carboxymethylcellulose bentonite (DW-CB) was successfully prepared by …

This study investigated the adsorption properties of graphene oxide in a magnetic-assisted
adsorber for the depollution of water containing heavy metals. Two samples of graphene …
