How to convert data from a column to list

Hello, I have a column with data separated by & that comes from transforming a data list into a grouped column. Now I would like to convert that data string back to a list to treat it and remove duplicates.

Does anyone know how it's done? Thanks in advance.

The goal is to have a column with the unique values and leave concatenated those that are not unique.
