Defence and Civilian Applications of Rare Earth Elements

3, Monsoon 2022 (July-September) Defence anD civilian applications of RaRe eaRth elements the term ‘rare earth What are rare earth eleMeNts? elements’ is somewhat according to the international Union of of a misnomer or pure and applied chemistry (iUpac) misleading, as these definition, rare earth metals are a family elements are available of 15 elements in the periodic table, in abundant amounts. [...] Professor Xu Guangxian, the father of the chinese rare earth industry, with his research enabled extracting isotopes of uranium in rare earth extraction and development of Rees cutting-edge technologies, which contributed to enhancement of the Ree exporting capabilities of china.11 stage v: the growing extraction of rare earths and its environmental impact made the chinese government work on clean. [...] in 2012, the ‘Rare earth commitment towards clean Industry Accession Requirements’ policy energy transition, the was released by the Raw Materials Office application of rare earth of the Ministry of industry and information elements has a potential technology (Miit) to uplift production, and demand growth for the stop illegal mining.12 in order to improve the renewable technologies extraction and. [...] the ‘implementation proposal of cleaner production Technologies in Rare Earth Industry’ issued by the MIIT in 2014 led to the publication of the ‘Plan for the Development of Rare Earth Industry’ (2016- 2020), which generalised the rare earth engineering and reform for cleaner production.13 With the increased global commitment towards clean energy transition, the application of rare earth elements. [...] in the biological system, cerium and lanthanum are used in bio-membranes to monitor the movement and deposition within the procurement of both plants and animals; and to develop the role of calcium in the cells.
