| Precipitation stripping has been demonstrated to be a viable technique for recovery of lanthanides from solvent extraction processes. The purities and particle morphologies of the lanthanide oxides formed by this procedure are of the utmost concern. Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), powder X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have been used to monitor the purity and morphology of yttrium oxide, samarium(III) oxide, and lutetium oxide produced via precipitation stripping. The results of these analyses will be discussed in detail. |
