The process of removal of heavy metals is important due to their toxic effects on living
organisms and undesirable anthropogenic effects. Conventional methods possess many …

Scandium (Sc) is a typical dispersed rare earth element. The sources of Sc mainly include
primary sources (natural ores) and secondary sources (some industrial by-products or …

In recent years, the global demand for scandium has increased due to its essential role in
the high-technology industry. Red mud leachates constitute a significant source of scandium …

For effective adsorption and separation of precious rare metal scandium (Sc) from waste
water, a new bifunctional magnetic bentonite material was prepared, named bentonite/CoFe …

Develo** the efficient ionic liquid (IL)-based extractants for the solvent extraction of the
rare earth elements (REEs) is crucial but still facing challenges. In this study, two carboxylic …

Anthropogenic activities such as mining and ore beneficiation generate large amounts of
uranium-contaminated wastewater. The metal is radioactive and toxic; therefore, it needs to …

Herein we report the use of nylon-12-based 3D-printed filters incorporating α-
aminomethylphosphonic acid as an active additive for the recovery of Y, Nd, and Dy from the …

Strict regulations are in place to control the effluents of mining sites and other industries.
Heavy metal contamination of aquatic systems caused by leakages is difficult to mitigate as it …

This review is a first attempt to overview both medical and industrial applications of
bisphosphonates (BPs) at once, with an emphasis on structure–property relationships. The …

A simple one-pot reaction of maleic anhydride with iminodi (methylphosphonic acid) in
presence of N, N'-methylenebisacrylamide allows producing a micron-sized multifunctional …
