Technical purpose The technical use of the process involves the production of Dysprosium (Dy) through the precipitation of rare earth elements from a filtrate and subsequent leaching with hydrochloric acid (HCl). This process is specific to the extraction and refinement of dysprosium from REE containing ores in Southern China and Bayan Obo regions. Dysprosium is a rare earth element commonly used in permanent magnets, which are essential components of modern electronics, electric vehicles, and wind-turbine generators, among other high-tech applications. |
