Abstract Scope |
There is uncertainty in the supply of rare earth resources. Technical developments on the resource saving of rare earths and the alternate materials are important challenges, and the development of recycling technologies is also important for securing stable supply of rare earth resources. This presentation focuses on the recycling of the waste of neodymium magnet that is the industrially important product containing rare earth metals. Recent trend on research and development of recycling technologies of rare earth metals will be briefly reviewed. The research conducted by the authors, particularly the development of pyrometallurgical processes for recycling, will be also introduced. |
