Book Description
This report validates the performance and life cycle costs of molecular recognition technology (MRT) for selective heavy metal recovery from industrial process waste streams. MRT selectively removes heavy metal ions using synthetic chemical compounds called macrocyclic ligands. These ligands complex with the targeted heavy metal ions while allowing alkaline earth and alkali metal ions to pass through the MRT system. The captured heavy metal ions can be regenerated in a highly purified concentrated form, which can be recycled back to the industrial process or sold to a metal reclaimer. IBC Technologies, Inc., has patented these macrocyclic ligands as Superligs. MRT can recover in a single process Cu, Cd, Cr (Cr VI or Cr III), Ni, Pb, Zn, and Ag to below regulated discharge limits for industrial wastewater treatment plants. For other applications, MRT can be designed to remove single metal ions such as arsenic (As). This report includes all the data from the operational runs of the pilot scale MRT demonstration at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard's industrial wastewater pretreatment facility (IWPF). At the IWPF, two MRT mixed bed columns were used where Superlig 327 recovered copper, lead, silver, nickel, cadmium and zinc from the influent stream. Superlig 3O7 and Superlig 310 were used to recover chromium (VI) and chromium (III) respectively. The efficiency of MRT system was calculated and cost data presented along with a discussion of regulatory issues.

Book Description
The sustainable use of natural resources is an important global challenge, and improved metal sustainability is a crucial goal for the 21st century in order to conserve the supply of critical metals and mitigate the environmental and health issues resulting from unrecovered metals. Metal Sustainability: Global Challenges, Consequences and Prospects discusses important topics and challenges associated with sustainability in metal life cycles, from mining ore to beneficiation processes, to product manufacture, to recovery from end-of-life materials, to environmental and health concerns resulting from generated waste. The broad perspective presented highlights the global interdependence of the many stages of metal life cycles. Economic issues are emphasized and relevant environmental, health, political, industrial and societal issues are discussed. The importance of applying green chemistry principles to metal sustainability is emphasized. Topics covered include: • Recycling and sustainable utilization of precious and specialty metals • Formal and informal recycling from electronic and other high-tech wastes • Global management of electronic wastes • Metal reuse and recycling in developing countries • Effects of toxic and other metal releases on the environment and human health • Effect on bacteria of toxic metal release • Selective recovery of platinum group metals and rare earth metals • Metal sustainability from a manufacturing perspective • Economic perspectives on sustainability, mineral development, and metal life cycles • Closing the Loop – Minerals Industry Issues The aim of this book is to improve awareness of the increasingly important role metals play in our high-tech society, the need to conserve our metal supply throughout the metal life cycle, the importance of improved metal recycling, and the effects that unhindered metal loss can have on the environment and on human health.
