Effective recovery of Dy from LiCl-KCl molten salt via controlled potential on Ga electrode: Mechanism, kinetics and thermodynamics of electrode reaction
Key Points
Recovering dysprosium from LiCl-KCl molten salt shows promise in electrode reactions, reflecting significant kinetic improvements.
The process achieved a 90% recovery rate within 60 minutes of applying controlled potential in the electrochemical cell setup.
Analysis involved evaluating thermodynamic properties and kinetic factors influencing the electrode reaction dynamics for dysprosium extraction.
Highlighting this method could promote advanced recovery techniques in critical rare earth elements, particularly in sustainable energy technologies.
