Method for removing valuable components from technogenic solutions by the example of rare earth elements

Abstract

Abstract The improvement of the effectiveness of separation of similar rare earth elements in terms of properties, permitting cost reduction of individual REE and their oxides, and extending the possibility of their application, becomes a topical problem. The method for removing valuable components from technogenic solutions is going significance now days. The article examines the possibility of rare earth elements removal and separation by adsorptive bubble methods with the use of surfactant and experimental justification of distribution factors and separation factors. The above-mentioned factors of rare earth elements in the process of ion flotation depending on aqueous phase pH with the determination of the forms of recovered compounds were studied.
