A customized MOF-polymer composite for rapid gold extraction from water matrices

Wendy Lee Queen, Daniel Teav Sun, Shuliang Yang, Jun Li, Li Peng, Olga Syzgantseva

With the fast-growing accumulation of electronic waste and rising demand for rare metals, it is compelling to develop technologies that can promotionally recover targeted metals, like gold, from waste, a process referred to as urban mining. Thus, there is ...

Microbial communities associated with uranium in-situ recovery mining process are related to acid mine drainage assemblages

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Pierre Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Thomas Coral

A large fraction (47%) of the world's uranium is mined by a technique called “In Situ Recovery” (ISR). This mining technique involves the injection of a leaching fluid (acidic or alkaline) into a uranium-bearing aquifer and the pumping of the resulting sol ...
