Russia has developed a technology for extracting rare earth elements from industrial waste

<

Recently, Polaris Energy Conservation Network learned from the Ministry of Science and Technology, Russia's National Research and Technological University, Moscow Institute of Iron and Steel Alloy and Russia's National Atomic Energy Corporation, "leading Chemical Technology Research Institute," a joint-stock company research team to develop waste from fertilizer production - - Phosphogypsum extracted with an important strategic significance of rare earth elements, thereby reducing the import of rare earth.

Rare earths are widely used in the production of high-tech products such as lasers, electronics and computers, and are increasing at an annual rate of 15%. China is the world's largest producer of rare earths.

Russia uses sulfuric acid to process apatite to produce phosphate fertilizer. During this period, it generated about 320 million tons of industrial waste phosphogypsum, which contains about 80-98% of gypsum components widely used in the building materials industry and 800,000 tons of rare earth elements.

This innovative new technology addresses three issues in a single step: extracting important rare earth metals from industrial waste, building material gypsum, and recycling waste. Researchers have started trial production and are planning to produce the first batch of rare earth products in 2016.
