OAK RIDGE, Tennessee, Jan. 27 -- The U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory issued the following news release:
Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory zoomed in on molecules designed to recover critical materials via liquid-liquid extraction, or LLE -- a method used by industry to separate chemically similar elements.
The team previously designed a novel ligand, or collector molecule, to grab select lanthanides from rare-earth mineral soluti . . .
