Recent research has focused on optimizing these properties to enhance the efficiency and selectivity of separation processes involving actinides and lanthanides. One significant area of research ...

These elements, which include the lanthanides (such as cerium and neodymium) and actinides (such as americium and uranium), exhibit similar chemical properties, making their separation a ...

There is the problem of separating trivalent actinides from trivalent lanthanides. In short, the transmutation of actinides needs a strong separation of lanthanides, because of the Ln's large number ...

Up to now, there also hasn't been a good system to compare chemical structures of actinide versus lanthanide compounds ...

"They differ by only the slightest amount, so isolating pure individual lanthanides requires very precise separation science.
