Uranium, vanadium, and chromium in fish scales: A redox‐unrelated accumulation pathway in continental margin sediments

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Enrichment patterns of the redox‐ and bio‐sensitive trace elements U, V, Cr, and Ni in margin sediments are essential for environmental reconstructions. However, their sedimentary accumulation pathways are not fully understood. While the accumulation of toxic trace elements like Cd, Hg, Pb, and Zn has been relatively well studied in fish ...

Origin of the unusually strong and selective binding of vanadium by polyamidoximes in seawater

Nature Communications, 2017
Amidoxime-functionalized polymeric adsorbents are the most promising materials for harvesting uranium from seawater. Here the authors investigate the preferential extraction of vanadium over uranium by polyamidoximes by exploring the unusually strong and

Extraction of uranium from seawater: chemical process and plant design feasibility study [PDF]

, 1979
A major assessment was made of the uranium resources in seawater. Several concepts for moving seawater to recover the uranium were investigated, including pumping the seawater and using natural ocean currents or tides directly.

Uranium from Seawater - Infinite Resource or Improbable Aspiration? [PDF]

, 2017
The availability of uranium drives the future of the nuclear energy industry; an upper limit on uranium prices will determine whether it is economically viable to continue utilising the present generation of light water reactors (LWRs).
