• Rare Earths and the Balance Problem (2015, background): “Bauxite residue (red mud) is a by-product of the aluminium production and is quite rich in scandium (OchsenkühnPetropoulou et al. 2002), whereas phosphogypsum is a by-product of the phosphoric acid production from phosphate rocks (Binnemans et al., 2013c).”
• Rare Earths and the Balance Problem: How to Deal with Changing Markets? (2018, background): “, the diversification of REE resources, recycling, substitution, reduced use, and new high-volume applications for REEs that are produced in excess [11, 12].”
• Rare earths supply chains: current status, constraints and opportunities (2014, methodology): “Recognising the supply constraints with critical REEs, Solvay has also started recycling REEs from three major sources: lamp phosphors (La, Ce, Eu, Y, Tb), NiMH batteries (La, Ce, Pr, Nd), and magnets (Pr, Nd, Dy, Tb) (Binnemans et al., 2013b; Rollat, 2012).”
• Perspectives for the recovery of rare earths from end-of-life fluorescent lamps (2014, background): “This is the so-called balance problem (or balancing problem)([22,23]).”
