Researchers at the University of Guanajuato (UGTO), in middle Mexico, developed an extraction column which recovers metals companies use in their production processes; and thus avoid environmental pollution and lessen economic losses.Using the principles of liquid-liquid technology, researchers have developed an extraction column which recovers metals companies use in their production processes and avoids both environmental pollution and lessen economic losses. The technology is already at laboratory prototype stage and the creators are in the process of obtaining a patent. Credit: University of Guanajuato/Investigación y Desarrollo read more
