Mineral matter catalyst system

Study of membrane extraction processes is a matter of primary importance for intensive development of separation and concentration methods of different nature substrates, especially such valuable ones as rare and scattered metals. The imique properties of rare earth metals (REM) allow using them in different realms of modem science and technology when making selective catalysts, magnets (samarium and neodymium), optical systems, luminophors, and ceramic capacitors. REMs are used in metallurgy for production of special cast iron grades, steel, and nonferrous metals alloys. REM additives increase quality of metallurgical products improve their properties, particularly shock resistance, viscosity, and corrosion resistance. Such materials are used primarily in aerospace industry. Extraction of REM from minerals is a complex process.
