In order to cope with climate change and implement low-carbon development, the energy structure cannot be separated from the production of clean energy. Rare earth elements are widely used in the fields of electronics, metallurgy, energy, and environmental protection due to their physical and chemical properties. On the one hand, the accumulation of electronic waste has a large impact on the environment due to the widespread use of rare earth devices. On the other hand, with the continuous mining of mineral resources, the amount of rare earth tailings is increasing, which is not in line with the development of sustainable circular economy. Therefore, the green recycling of REEs is of great importance to the environment and sustainable development. This paper assesses the low carbon and sustainability of the recovery of rare earth elements from secondary resources by hydrometallurgical, pyrometallurgical and bio-metallurgical processes in terms of socio-economic factors, including their advantages and disadvantages and how losses can be minimized. In addition, it provides a fuller exploration path and prospect for achieving green recycling and sustainable application of recycling in the future.

Luminescent properties of Dy3+ activated LaMgAl11O19 yellow emitting phosphors for application in white-LEDs

LaMgAl11O19, is a kind of rare earth aluminate with the hexagonal structure, which has been used as a host material for the luminescence of various rare earth and magnet-like ions. LaMgAl11O19:Eu3+ phosphors have been prepared through the one-pot method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) and photoluminescence spectra were used to characterize the resulting phosphors. The results of XRD indicated that the phosphors crystallized completely at 1,400 degrees C. In LaMgAl11O19:Eu3+ phosphors, the Eu3+ shows its characteristic red emission at 615 nm (5D0-7F2) upon excitation into 404 nm, with an optimum doping concentration of 15 mol% of La3+ in the host lattices.
