Electrochemical techniques for uranium extraction from water
Chemical Engineering JournalElectrochemical removal of uranium from water is an emerging topic that addresses the treatment of drinking water, remediation of contaminated sites, and mining from seawater. Electrochemical strategies compare favorably to conventional processes, such as adsorption and coagulation/flocculation, with advantages in speed and efficiency, materials ...

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions
Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.
