| Abstract Scope |
Rare earth elements are critical to many modern devices. However, they are difficult to separate because of the similarities in their properties. This presentation provides a brief overview of various fundamental principles that can be applied to separate rare earth elements using a magnetic field. Distinct differences in magnetic susceptibility can allow for the separation of REE and other elements as will be explored in this presentation. Leveraging these differences opens avenues for innovative applications of these principles through alternative processing methods, showcasing the potential for advancements in the field. |
