Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the depletion of strategic metal resources, it makes a huge sense for their sustainable separation and utilization with more efficient and economy techniques. Please consider submitting some of your excellent work in a Special Issue of Metals devoted to aspects of sustainable hydrometallurgy. This also includes green and low-carbon hydrometallurgy process along with newly synthesized separation materials, recycling and re-utilization of waste resources with green, harmless and economical process. Possible topics include quantum chemistry calculations, thermodynamics, kinetics, surface and interface chemistry, liquid-solid separations, liquid-liquid separations, purification, solvent extraction, ion exchange, adsorption, precipitation, electrosorption technique and magnetic adsorption separation technology. Suggested application areas are in rare earth, thorium, uranium, gold, silver, palladium, platinum, ruthenium copper, cobalt, nickel, lithium, gallium, germanium, indium, etc., Both primary and recycled aspects will be considered. Thank you.
Dr. Shengting Kuang
