Background: Membrane Technology - Resource Benification
South Africa has significant reserves of various naturally occurring resources. While some materials can be easily purified from these resources other separations are notoriously difficult. For example, Zircon, the most important source for Zr worldwide, always contains a few percent of Hf.
