We have extended a previous investigation by studying the ortho–para conversion of positronium in aqueous solutions of some lanthanide ions (Yb3+, Tm3+, Er3+, Dy3+, and Tb3+). The corresponding cross sections were found to be proportional to the number of unpaired electrons in the ion. Furthermore, the contact density of the electron–positron pair in the origin was obtained for a 1 M aqueous solution of ErCl3.

The recovery of rare earth ions from industrial wastewater has aroused wide concern in recent years. In present work, we synthesized a novel three-dimensional adsorbent (denoted as LF-AA) by grafting loofah fiber with acrylic acid via ultraviolet radiation. The LF-AA was washed by boiling water and subjected to soxhlet extraction with acetone and then fully characterized by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Rare earth ion (Ce(III)) was selected as a model to validate its adsorption property. The saturation adsorption capacity for Ce(III) reaches 527.5 mg/g. Not only was this material highly efficient at adsorbing Ce(III) from aqueous solutions, it also proved to have ideal performance in regeneration; the total adsorption capacity of LF-AA for Ce(III) after six successive cycles decreased only 6.40% compared with the initial capacity of LF-AA. More importantly, the LF-AA can be easily separated from aqueous solutions because of its three-dimensional sponge natural structure. This study provides a new insight into the fabrication of biomass adsorbent and demonstrated that the LF-AA can be used as excellent adsorbent for the recovery of rare earth ions from wastewater.

The precursor prepared by co-precipitation method was sintered at various temperatures to synthesize crystalline manganese tungstate (MnWO4). Sintered MnWO4 showed the best crystallinity at a sintering temperature of 800 °C. Rare earth ion (Dysprosium; Dy3+) was added when preparing the precursor to enhance the magnetic and luminescent properties of crystalline MnWO4 based on these sintering temperature conditions. As the amount of rare earth ions was changed, the magnetic and luminescent characteristics were enhanced; however, after 0.1 mol.%, the luminescent characteristics decreased due to the concentration quenching phenomenon. In addition, a composite was prepared by mixing MnWO4 powder, with enhanced magnetism and luminescence properties due to the addition of dysprosium, with epoxy. To one of the two prepared composites a magnetic field was applied to induce alignment of the MnWO4 particles. Aligned particles showed stronger luminescence than the composite sample prepared with unsorted particles. As a result of this, it was suggested that it can be used as phosphor and a photosensitizer by utilizing the magnetic and luminescent properties of the synthesized MnWO4 powder with the addition of rare earth ions.

Rare earth elements, i.e., lanthanides, are important components of many recently developed technology applications. However, their increasing use in the industrial sector, medicine, and agriculture over the last few decades has provided them with the title of “new pollutants”. Different methods are now applied for the removal of various pollutants from wastewaters, whereby the emphasis is placed on adsorption due to its simplicity, high efficiency, and low cost. In the present study, geopolymers prepared from coal ash were examined regarding their capacity for the adsorption of lanthanides from model solutions. The obtained results indicate the efficient removal of lanthanides by prepared geopolymers, depicting them as effective adsorbents for this group of elements.
