This award will enable Dr. Jerald S. Bradshaw of Brigham Young                  University to collaborate with Dr. Leonard F. Lindoy of James Cook              University, Townsville, Australia in the development of separation              techniques for important heavy metal cations.  A series of synthetic            compounds which selectively complex with heavy metal cations will be            prepared.  The best of these heavy metal cation complexing agents               will then be modified for testing as heavy metal cation carriers in             a bulk liquid membrane system and will be attached to silica gel to             test their use in separating specific cations from a multi-cation               system.                                                                                                                                                         The development of extraction techniques for the selective recovery             of metals from solution is critical to the advancement of                       technologies related to metal processing and environmental cleanup.             Dr. Lindoy's group has expertise in the synthesis and heavy metal               complexation properties of oxygen-nitrogen donor ligands.  Dr.                  Bradshaw's group has extensive experience in the selective                      separation of cations. Thus, the research will benefit significantly            from the complementary skills of the investigators.
