Summary: A series of extraction chromatographic resins containing various phosphorus-containing and DGA-based extractants and ionic liquids were synthesized and studied for their sorption characteristics for rare earth elements (REE) in sulfate solutions. The study found that the resin capacity for REE in sulfuric acid solutions was not affected by the matrix type, and the acidity of the aqueous phase played a significant role in lanthanides sorption from sulfate solutions.

Summary: In this study, a strategy for the separation of actinides from lanthanides by oxidizing actinides to hexavalent oxidation states and selectively extracting them using a sterically hindered ligand, 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester (EHEHPA), was proposed. The results demonstrate the high efficiency of this method for the separation of actinides from lanthanides.

Summary: DEHP, considered an endocrine disruptor chemical (EDC), is widely used in the plastic industry and can have negative effects on placental development and function, potentially impacting fetal growth. Research indicates that DEHP and MEHP can impair key processes in placental development and affect various placental functions. Clinical evidence also supports the connection between DEHP exposure and adverse pregnancy outcomes and pathologies.

Summary: Aniline and polyaniline were successfully impregnated into Chinese D263B resin to enhance the removal of U(VI) from Abu El Toyour leach liquor. The impregnated D263B/polyaniline exhibited high U(VI) adsorption capacity and followed pseudo-second order kinetic model. The thermodynamic evaluation showed that the adsorption process was exothermic, random, and non-spontaneous. Elution of U(VI) from loaded D263B/polyaniline was achieved using NaCl/H2SO4 solution. The optimized factors were successfully applied for enhanced U(VI) removal.

Summary: The performance of the extractant is crucial for rare earth extraction and separation. Using (2-ethylhexylamino)methyl phosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester (HEHAMP) as the extractant, rare earths (III) were successfully extracted and separated in nitrate medium. HEHAMP showed higher performance in separating heavy rare earths compared to sulfate and chloride solutions. The extraction mechanism involved cation exchange and the loaded organic phase could be easily stripped by hydrochloric acid.

Summary: This study reveals the neurotoxicity of MEHP on zebrafish embryos and larvae, and investigates the potential molecular mechanisms. MEHP has been found to impede growth and affect gene expression related to neurodevelopment. The study also shows that MEHP induces oxidative stress, brain cell apoptosis, and abnormal neural behavior, with potential involvement of the immune system and inflammation pathways.

Summary: The study focuses on the sorption of radium-223 and polonium-210 on a thin-layer MnO2-CTA sorbent. The results show a high sorption efficiency for both radium and polonium, with observed changes in the alpha spectrum quality during the sorption process. The different behaviors of radium and polonium in terms of alpha peak width suggest potential differences in sorption mechanisms and diffusion processes.

Summary: Bauxite residue is a promising source of scandium, with nearly 150 tons of this trace metal appearing annually in waste dumps in the aluminum plants of the Ural region, Russia. A method of red mud carbonization by carbon dioxide has been described, resulting in scandium leaching and decrease of toxicity. Methods to increase scandium leaching degrees, such as ultrasonic treatment and mechanical activation, were evaluated. It was suggested that carbonated red mud had high sorption activity, causing secondary loss of scandium in the carbonate treatment process.

Summary: The article discusses the results of experiments on the sorption of alpha emitting radionuclides on thin-layer sorbents consisting of manganese dioxide layer coated onto polymer films. The experiments reveal an increase in the width of alpha peaks on the sorbents' spectra with longer sorption times, attributed to the diffusion of alpha emitters into the sorbents. A mathematical treatment method of the alpha spectra is proposed to calculate the diffusion coefficients of the alpha emitters in flat samples. The method is tested on manganese dioxide sorbents after sorption of various radionuclides, showing different mobility patterns for different radionuclides.
