Efficient Nickel and Cobalt Recovery by Metal-Organic Framework-Based Mixed Matrix Membranes (MMM-MOFs).

ABSTRACT: Green energy transition has supposed to give a huge boost to the electric vehicle rechargeable battery market. This has generated a compelling demand for raw materials, such as cobalt and nickel, which are key common constituents in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, their existing mining protocols and the concentrated localization of such ores have made cobalt and nickel mineral conundrums, and their supplies experience shortages, which threaten to slow the progress of the renewable energy transition. Aiming to contribute to the sustainable recycling of these valuable metals from LIBs and wastewater, in this work, we explore the use of four mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) embedding different metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), i.e., MIL-53(Al), MIL-53(Fe), MIL-101(Fe),
