Analysis of Rare Earth Elements in Water and Sediments

Abstract: Increasing consumption and demand on rare earth elements (REEs) in high‐tech devices, petroleum refinery, medical MRI, metallurgy, agriculture fertilizer, and REEs mining have inevitably released noticeable REEs to soils, waters, and food chains, raising environment and health concerns. Determination of REEs in water and sediments is primarily needed for tracing source materials, exploring mineral resources, and identifying environmental pollutions. REE concentrations in natural water are extremely low in the … Show more

“…REEs predominantly accumulate in deposits associated with alkaline igneous formations, specifically in carbonatite and pegmatite veins, and are often divided into light rare earth elements (LREEs: La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, and Eu) and heavy rare earth elements (HREEs: Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu). In general, the abundance of LREEs is higher than that of HREEs according to the Oddo-Harkins effect [1,3]. These deposits serve as the primary sources for these valuable elements, and their precise characterization is indispensable in strategic resource planning and management.…”
