The characterization of the Nanomaterial Rare Earth Element (REE) in coal in Indonesia as well as the development of its extraction technique as an alternative to new REE sources

Year of research: 2016

Source of funds: Kemenristekdikti

REY's need to rise year after year encourages the discovery of a new source of REY. Research on "The Nanomaterial characterization of Rare Earth Element (REE) in coal in Indonesia as well as the development of its extraction technique as an alternative to new REE sources" aims to determine the concentration of REE + Yttrium (REY) on coal at the research site and can be forwarded until the appropriate extraction method.
