The possibility of their recovery in Europe is limited practically only to secondary materials such as phosphogypsum and electronic waste. The article presents the results of our research concerning the development of recovery technology of yttrium and europium from luminophore CRT used lamps. It describes the principle of separation of elements and the test results of cleaning the concentrate. It was shown that the costs of preparing the concentrate according to the proposed technology are lower than the phosphogypsum processing technology and the composition of the resulting product does not contain hazardous substances.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={The Recovery of Yttrium and Europium Compounds from Waste Materials}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/85857/PDF/10265-Volume39-Issue3-paper_08.pdf}, doi={10.2478/aep-2013-0023}, keywords={recovery, yttrium, europium, waste materials}, }
