We present a facile method for tungsten ion removal using lysine for the development of an environmentally friendly and sustainable recycling technique. Lysine addition to the tungsten solution achieved 100% tungsten removal within 5 min, as a white lysine–tungsten precipitate. Calcination of the lysine–tungsten precipitate produced tungsten oxide powder of high purity (99.6%) because the lysine is completely decomposed. This facile and useful metal removal method can be used for polyoxometalates of other metals such as molybdenum, tantalum, and niobium.
