In-Situ Process for Sorption and Stripping of Rare Earth Elements from Simulated Geothermal Brine
Description of a conceptual commercial process to remove rare earth elements (REEs) from geothermal brine, based on a small-scale laboratory experiment to load, strip, and regenerate a ligand-based media used to adsorb REEs from a simulated brine doped with known mineral concentrations.
