The study focused on developing a separation approach to recover REEs from AMD treatment sludge. Parametric leaching tests were first conducted, and optimum leaching conditions were determined as a pH value of 0.5 and a leaching time of 8 min. Stage-wise precipitation tests were then applied to illustrate the precipitation behaviors of various groups …
Membrane solvent extraction provides an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly process to recover rare earth elements from electronic waste. Rare earth elements (REEs) — particularly dysprosium (Dy), praseodymium (Pr), and neodymium (Nd) — have recently drawn urgent worldwide attention and have become strategically critical for the ...
Improved methods for critical materials (rare earths, Mn, Co, Li, etc.) extraction and processing have been identified as a national priority.
Rare-earth permanent magnets – as I described in my column a few months ago – are alloys of elements such as neodymium, samarium and cerium.
