Genetic modification of microbes that are thermophiles—ones that grow at elevated temperatures—is extremely challenging. Tools developed for E. coli, a typical host for protein production, typically do not function at elevated temperatures.
Leaching is generally the first step in chemically extracting rare earth elements (REEs) from minerals and technology waste feedstocks. As such, it presents the first opportunity to begin the arduous task of REE separation.
Biogas represents a significant source of carbon-rich fuel, most of which is not being captured and used due to the high amounts of acid gases present in the produced gas.
This invention describes a new class of amphiphilic chelators (extractants) that can selectively separate large, light rare earth elements from heavy, small rare earth elements in solvent extraction schemes.
This invention discloses a method for the preparation of Br-modified CZZ catalysts with both improved selectivity and yield for the desirable products of methanol or DME.
Membrane-based dispersion-free supported liquid membrane solvent extraction (MSX) for the separation, concentration and recovery of rare earth elements such as neodymium, europium, yttrium, terbium and dysprosium enables the process to operate in a single step delivering
A microchip designed to perform spatial confinement of a sample in two dimensions in an electric field-free region on the microchip.
Here, we present the first evidence of an alternative role for LCOs that involves trans-kingdom signaling between a fungus and multiple soilborne bacteria through the regulation of fungal-secreted metabolites with potential bioactivities.
Efficient fueling for magnetically confined fusion power systems requires continuous recirculation of cryogenic fuel material.
This invention affords the quantitative extraction of rare earths present in phosphoric acid streams produced in phosphoric acid plants. The stream is typically 27%-30% P2O5 while the total amount of rare earths is estimated at 150-200 ppm.
