IntroductionRare Earth Elements (REE) are 17 elements highly relevant for societal needs (batteries, steels and super alloys, hybrid cars, windmills, oil catalysts, electronic components, etc.) but in risk of supply. Sources of REE can be primary (direct mining) or secondary (recycling and other secondary sources). ENVIREE is about developing clean and efficient technologies for the leaching and separation of REE from secondary sources. A fun-damental step in the evaluation of the secondary sources considered within the project is linked to the sampling site selection and sampling criteria that will allow to choose the most promised REE’s rich samples to be used in the leaching process.
Learning outcomesTo be able to understand the basics of a sampling program including the selection of the sampling site and the criteria for the sampling of secondary sources rich in REE’s.To be able to understand the basics of the leach-ing process and of different separation tech-niques to recover REE’s.
Who should attendThis introductory course is part of ENVIREE’ WP5 (Training, education, dissemination and market uptake) and is designed mainly for mining and chemical engineers, geologists and chemists as well as others wanting to get familiar with sam-pling techniques from secondary sources and rare earth recovery from leaching solutions. It is envisaged to give an introductory knowledge on current sampling and separation state-of-the-art. Members of the ENVIREE Consortium, PROMETIA Project, researchers and students, are welcome to join.
