Direct Recovery of the Rare Earth Elements Using a Silk Displaying a Metal-Recognizing Peptide

Rare earth elements (RE) are indispensable metallic resources in the production of advanced materials; hence, a cost- and energy-effective recovery process is required to meet the rapidly increasing RE demand. Here, we propose an artificial RE recovery approach that uses a functional silk displaying...
