“…The rise of DESs is also moving in this direction since they involve lower viscosities and cheaper precursors than the ILs, making technical considerations for the implementation of industrial process less restrictive [231]. It appears that the application of DESs for the recovery of REEs could address some of the existing challenges of ionic liquids.…”

Recovery of Rare Earth Elements (REEs) Using Ionic Solvents

et al. 2021

Rare earth elements (REEs) are becoming more and more significant as they play crucial roles in many advanced technologies. Therefore, the development of optimized processes for their recovery, whether from primary resources or from secondary sources, has become necessary, including recovery from mine tailings, recycling of end-of-life products and urban and industrial waste. Ionic solvents, including ionic liquids (ILs) and deep-eutectic solvents (DESs), have attracted much attention since they represent an alternative to conventional processes for metal recovery. These systems are used as reactive agents in leaching and extraction processes. The most significant studies reported in the last decade regarding the recovery of REEs are presented in this review.
