REE from Magnets

Recover high-value Neodymium (Nd), Praseodymium (Pr), and Dysprosium (Dy) from end-of-life NdFeB permanent magnets using Refnic’s advanced, sustainable hydrometallurgical processes.

Recovering Rare Earth Elements from NdFeB Magnets

NdFeB magnets from EV motors, wind turbines, hard drives, and industrial equipment contain significant amounts of critical rare earth elements. Refnic’s specialized hydrometallurgical technology efficiently extracts Neodymium, Praseodymium, and Dysprosium with high recovery rates and purity, supporting India’s push for self-reliance in critical minerals.
