REE Recovery from End-of-Life NdFeB Permanent Magnet Scrap: A Critical Review

Yongxiang Yang, Allan Walton, Richard Sheridan et al. · 20 Sep 2016

NdFeB permanent magnets have different life cycles, depending on the applications: from as short as 2–3 years in consumer electronics to 20–30 years in wind turbines. The size of the magnets ranges from less than 1 g in small consumer electronics to about 1 kg in electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid and electric vehicles (HEVs),…

Solvometallurgy: An Emerging Branch of Extractive Metallurgy
