Journal ArticleDOI
Extraction and separation of neodymium and dysprosium from used NdFeB magnets: an application of ionic liquids in solvent extraction towards the recycling of magnets
Sofía Riaño,Koen Binnemans +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a procedure for the efficient extraction and separation of rare earths and other valuable elements from used NdFeB permanent magnets is presented, where an iron free leachate is prepared from an used magnet using nitric acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solvometallurgical recovery of cobalt from lithium-ion battery cathode materials using deep-eutectic solvents
TL;DR: In this article, a green, cheap and safe approach is proposed by using a choline chloride-citric acid deep-eutectic solvent (DES) as lixiviant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Separation of rare earths and other valuable metals from deep-eutectic solvents: a new alternative for the recycling of used NdFeB magnets
Sofía Riaño,Martina Petranikova,Bieke Onghena,Tom Vander Hoogerstraete,Dipanjan Banerjee,Mark R. St J. Foreman,Christian Ekberg,Koen Binnemans +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a deep-eutectic solvent based on choline chloride and lactic acid was used for the leaching of rare earths and other metals from NdFeB magnets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient and Sustainable Removal of Magnesium from Brines for Lithium/Magnesium Separation Using Binary Extractants
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that over 70% of the global lithium resources are found in salt lake brines, but lithium is always accompaniment to lithium-ion batteries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Separation of neodymium and dysprosium by solvent extraction using ionic liquids combined with neutral extractants: batch and mixer-settler experiments
TL;DR: In this article, a solvent extraction method based on the combination of the ionic liquid trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium thiocyanate or nitrate was investigated for the separation of rare earths from chloride media.
