The separation process can be conducted using various instruments, but the most fitting method depends on the mixture’s properties. This article covers the importance of solid-liquid separation in the ...

Researchers have developed a new chemical separation method that is vastly more efficient than conventional processes, opening the door to faster discovery of new elements, easier nuclear fuel ...

Without the critical step of separation—isolating cells, nucleic acids, and proteins from biological samples—many workflows in research, diagnostics, and cell therapy would not be possible. Over the ...

Giving a 65-year-old laboratory technique a new role, researchers have performed the cleanest separation to date of synthetic nanoparticles from a living organism. Sometimes old-school methods provide ...

The past October marked an exciting time for those in the field of isotopic science. Two brand new approaches to isolate and enrich light elements have been reported. Although a variety of elements ...

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) plays a major role in the early detection of various types of cancer. A research group led by Specially Appointed Professor Katsumi Kaneko of the Research Initiative ...

The magnetic power to attract—and repel—is used in several different ways to sort and separate materials within recycling streams. Magnets can be seen everywhere across the recycling spectrum. From ...

Separation techniques and principles that were used by early gold prospectors are still used today in the mining industry. Some of these methods, transferred to the recycling industry, have ...
