Chromium monitoring in water by colorimetry using optimised 1,5-diphenylcarbazide method
(MDPI, 2019)
Chromium contamination of drinking water has become a global problem due to its extensive use in industry. The most commonly used methods for chromium detection in water are laboratory-based methods, such as atomic absorption ...
Lithium in the natural waters of the South East of Ireland
(MDPI, 2017)
The South East of Ireland (County Carlow) contains a deposit of the valuable lithium-bearing mineral spodumene (LiAl(SiO3)2). This resource has recently attracted interest and abstractive mining in the area is a possibility ...
Global lithium sources-industrial use and future in the electric vehicle industry: A review
(MDPI, 2018)
Lithium is a key component in green energy storage technologies and is rapidly becoming a metal of crucial importance to the European Union. The different industrial uses of lithium are discussed in this review along with ...
Arsenic monitoring in water by colorimetry using an optimized leucomalachite green method
(MDPI, 2019)
Arsenic contamination of drinking water is a global concern. Standard laboratory methods that are commonly used for arsenic detection in water, such as atomic absorption spectroscopy and mass spectroscopy, are not suitable ...
Induced plant accumulation of lithium
(MDPI, 2018)
Lithium’s (Li) value has grown exponentially since the development of Li-ion batteries. It is usually accessed in one of two ways: hard rock mineral mining or extraction from mineral-rich brines. Both methods are expensive ...
Combining remote temperature sensing with in-situ sensing to track marine/freshwater mixing dynamics.
(MDPI, 2016)
The ability to track the dynamics of processes in natural water bodies on a global scale, and at a resolution that enables highly localised behaviour to be visualized, is an ideal scenario for understanding how local events ...
