Ion-adsorption. 1. Introduction. Rare earth elements (REEs) are a group of seventeen metallic elements in the periodic table, with fifteen of them belong to the lanthanide group, scandium (Sc), and yttrium (Y). Due to the need for rare earth elements (REEs) in diverse applications, research on REEs has expanded in several countries.
Production: Malaysia accounted for approximately 0.16% of global production in 2018.
