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 ...
AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE2023Some Results of the EU Project FASTGRID
The EU FASTGRID project aimed at improving the REBCO conductor in order to enhance its economical attractiveness for the Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL). Two approaches were simultaneously investigated: i) the reduction of the tape length thro ...
IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC2022Extraction of Rare Earth Metals: The New Thermodynamic Considerations Toward Process Hydrometallurgy
Christian Ludwig, Rudolf Paul Wilhelm Jozef Struis, Andrea Testino, Ajay Bhagwan Patil
Successful management of secondary waste resources is essential for the viable circular economy. E-waste could serve as the potential urban mining source for the alternative supply chain of critical metals such as rare earth elements (REEs). The hydrometal ...
Springer Nature Switzerland AG2021Seeking methods for improving sustainability in the extractive sector
Extractive resources are indisputably a necessary component of international sustainable development. Despite current advancements in the circular economy, world production needs for raw materials are ever increasing, and still a long way remains for it to ...

2019Microbial 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 ...
2018Rapid, Selective Extraction of Trace Amounts of Gold from Complex Water Mixtures with a Metal-Organic Framework (MOF)/Polymer Composite
Wendy Lee Queen, Emad Oveisi, Natalia Gasilova, Daniel Teav Sun, Shuliang Yang
With the ever-increasing production of electronics, there is an ensuing need for gold extraction from sources other than virgin mines. Currently, there are no technologies reported to date that can effectively and selectively concentrate ultratrace amounts ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2018Integrating anthropogenic material stocks and flows into modern resource classification frameworks
This study investigates how anthropogenic resources could fit into the United Nations Framework Classification for Fossil Energy and Mineral Reserves and Resources 2009 (UNFC-2009). Compared to geogenic resources, anthropogenic deposits are more heterogene ...
A World Resources Forum Production, PSI2017Biostimulation as a remediation strategy post uranium acidic in situ recovery
Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Pierre Rossi, Thomas Coral, Brian Carl Reinsch
A large fraction (47%) of the world’s uranium is mined by a technique called “In Situ Recovery”. This mining technique involves the injection of a leaching fluid (acid or alkaline) into a uranium-bearing aquifer and the pumping of the resulting solution th ...
2016Mining, Modeling and Predicting Mobility
Mobility is a central aspect of our life, and our movements reveal much more about us than simply our whereabouts. In this thesis, we are interested in mobility and study it from three different perspectives: the modeling perspective, the information-theor ...
