However, only a few locations have large enough deposits worth mining, resulting in global supply chain tensions. So, there&#8217;s a push toward recycling them from non-traditional sources, such as waste from burning coal &#8212; fly ash. Now, researchers report a simple method for recovering these elements from coal fly ash using an ionic liquid.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2021\/06\/210623091213.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Mining precious rare-earth elements from coal fly ash with a reusable ionic liquid<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ScienceDaily&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rare-earth elements are in many everyday products, such as smart phones, LED lights and batteries.
