A new solvent-based technique could change how lithium is extracted from brines, potentially making the process faster, ...

Let's face it, we are a results-driven society. Too focused on the outcome, people don't often think about the "how." For instance, did you think about "how" you got to work this morning or did you ...

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are primarily thought of as environmental pollutants, and most research ...

Solvent extraction supports the migration of lithium ions from brine into an organic liquid phase that contains a specific ...

In clinical practice, molecular analysis of tumor specimens is often restricted by available technology for sample preparation. Virtually all current methods require homogenization of tissues for ...

Natural product extraction is a crucial process in the fields of chemistry, biology, and pharmaceuticals. It involves isolating bioactive compounds from plants, animals, and other natural sources to ...

As the electric vehicle market booms, the demand for lithium—the mineral required for lithium-ion batteries—has also soared. Global lithium production has more than tripled in the last decade. But ...

A team of international researchers discovered a new hydrogel material that can increase water absorption from dry desert air, which could reduce water scarcity in arid regions. With global ...
