Rhenium (Re) is an extremely rare and precious element that is mainly used in the construction of aerospace components and satellite stations. However, an efficient and simple method for preparing Re has yet to be devised. To this end, we investigated the vibrational spectrum of ammonium perrhenate (NHReO) using the CASTEP code based on first-principles density functional theory. We assigned the infrared (IR) absorption and Raman scattering spectra for NHReO using a dynamic process analysis of optical branch normal modes. We examined the IR-active peaks of Re-related vibrational modes in detail and found that the typical IR peak at approximately 914 cm is due to the Re-O bond stretching. Thus, we posit that strong terahertz laser irradiation of NHReO at 914 cm will lead to sufficient resonance absorption to cleave its Re-O bonds. This method could potentially be used to efficiently separate Re from its oxides.

Rhenium is largely used as an additive to nickel- and cobalt-based superalloys. Their resistance to temperature and corrosion makes them suitable for the production of turbines in civil and military aviation, safety valves in drilling platforms, and tools working at temperatures exceeding 1000 °C. The purity of commercial rhenium salts is highly important.

Article Synopsis
  • Current technologies for removing highly soluble pertechnetate (TcO) from contaminated water are limited, highlighting a strong need for effective solutions in environmental and public health contexts.!* -
  • This research explored the use of MIL-101-Cr-NO materials modified with anion exchange and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to enhance the removal of perrhenate (ReO), a model for TcO, from artificial groundwater, with significant improvements in removal efficiency and speed.!* -
  • The findings indicated that modified MIL-101-Cr materials effectively sequestered ReO through both anion exchange and chemical interactions, suggesting that metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) could be

Rhenium is an element that exhibits a broad range of oxidation states. Synthesis paths of selected rhenium compounds in its seventh oxidation state, which are common precursors for organic reaction catalysts, were presented in this paper. Production technologies for copper perrhenate, aluminum perrhenate as well as the ammonia complex of cobalt perrhenate, are thoroughly described.
