Onderzoekers winnen zeldzame aardmetalen uit kolenbijproducten met zuurvrij proces

Georgia Tech researchers have developed an acid-free technique to extract rare earth elements from coal waste, addressing both resource scarcity and industrial byproduct management. The breakthrough method, created by postdoctoral researcher Anuja Tripathi and professors Ching-Hua Huang and Xing Xie, enables recovery of critical materials essential for modern technology production.
