Extractive Metallurgy of Rare Earths de Nagaiyar Krishnamurthy

Extractive Metallurgy of Rare Earths

Autor Nagaiyar Krishnamurthy, Chiranjib Kumar Gupta
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 dec 2015
New Edition Now Covers Recycling, Environmental Issues, and Analytical Determination
Employing four decades of experience in the rare metal and rare earths industry, the authors of Extractive Metallurgy of Rare Earths, Second Edition present the entire subject of rare earth elements with depth and accuracy. This second edition updates the most important developments from the past 10 years. It emphasizes advances made in rare-earth materials processing (converting a rare-earth metal, alloy, or compound to a device-ready material), breakthroughs in the area of rare-earth separation, and now includes a chapter on the recycling of rare earth elements from magnets, batteries, and phosphors among others, covering both manufacturing scrap or materials in end of life devices.
Essential to Your Collection
This second edition presents comprehensive, detailed, and up-to-date coverage that includes:

Recenzii

"This book is an update to a very well-written and valuable reference text that has capitalized on an important and scarce commodity. It provides invaluable information on a very important aspect of the development of green energy. Rare earth magnets have become essential components in a wide variety of technical advancements (windmills, Chevy Volt, etc.)."
—Patrick R. Taylor, Colorado School of Mines, Golden, USA
"[A strength of this book is] the completeness of the coverage. The addition of a recycling chapter is a good idea. … This is a timely update of a book that is already important. The sooner it appears in print, the better."
—Mark E. Schlesinger, Missouri University of Science and Technology, Rolla, USA
"This is the best, most comprehensive, most up-to-date technical book on rare earths—a massive encyclopedic compilation without equal. The new edition, more than 300 pages longer than its predecessor (1st ed., 2004), was updated to include discussions of advances in the field and recycling. Krishnamurthy (Homi Bhabha National Institute, India) and Gupta (formerly, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre) organized the volume into 12 chapters. They begin with an introduction to the history, properties, and applications of the rare earths, followed by a discussion of geology, minerals, and specific occurrences worldwide. Later chapters cover processing (mining, beneficiation, etc.); reduction to the metals, including the chemistry and physics of different methods; metal refining processes; rare earth materials and their applications; recycling; "accurate and reliable techniques" for chemical characterization and analyses of rare earth materials; and environmental issues and select examples from many areas worldwide. The text is strongly and appropriately augmented by numerous tables, charts, and illustrations. Most outstanding is a reference list of about 1,260 items that deal with the many subtopics addressed. The book's value lies in its complete coverage of essential knowledge of rare earth metals, including their technology and uses."

"For geologists, chemists, metallurgists, and students, it covers everything they want to know about rare earths — in short it is [the] book of the year."
Fathi Habashi, Laval University, Quebec, Canada
"Rare earth elements are finding increasing application in advanced technologies. The book is useful in bringing together the extensive information that is available about the potential sources of these elements and the technologies used to process them. …This is a timely update of a valuable reference source."
