Aluminum is a critical element used in thousands of important products, but it can often interfere with quick and effective extraction of valuable rare earth elements (REEs) from coal waste byproducts. NETL researchers have also developed MOF-based luminescent sensors for REEs. Currently, most REEs are produced and refined in other countries.
