Researchers at The Ohio State University have developed a novel process to clean coal mine drainage and extract rare-earth elements from it. The TEP process uses the alkalinity and filtering capacity of stabilized flue gas desulfurization (sFGD) material or water treatment plant (WTP) sludge to remediate CMD waters and extract REEs.
