Hydrometallurgy of Rare Earths: Extraction and Separation provides the basic knowledge for Rare Earth extraction and separation including flow sheet selection criteria and related technology. The book includes the latest research findings of all rare earth separation processes, methods of controlling operation costs as well as strategies to lower waste water and waste solid discharge. It discusses many real process parameters and actual situations in rare earth separation plants. The book examines the basic principles of the processes, technology, process parameters and the latest advances and achievements in the area of rare earth extraction and separation, providing readers with both theoretical and practical knowledge. This book outlines rare earth extraction separation theory as developed by Professor Guanxian Xu and Professor Chunhua Yan and the creative use of a computational simulation program to replace the bench scale and pilot plant tests and directly design rare earth extraction separation processes, ie the one-step scale up to plant design approach. This book provides basic operation costs for every stage of the rare earth separation processes. This unique title is the only book available which deals in detail with Scandium extraction and separation . Outlines the theory of solvent extraction and separation of rare earths (REs)Provides the necessary tools for a REs separation plant designIncludes a unique simulation program for the calculation of all process parametersIncludes Chinese nomenclature useful for identifying the various processes and compares to the global literature INDICE: 1.
