99TcO4 − removal from legacy defense nuclear waste by an alkaline-stable 2D cationic metal organic framework

Separation of 99TcO4 − from nuclear waste at the Savannah River Site is hampered by the extreme conditions. Here, the authors propose a solution by developing an alkaline-resistant metal organic framework material featuring unique recognition sites for selective incorporation of 99TcO4 − anions.
