Session description
Rare earth materials, essential in high-tech and renewable energy industries, are increasingly being recovered from waste, transforming a disposal challenge into a valuable resource. Innovations in recycling technologies not only reduce our reliance on mining but also mitigate environmental impacts. And as demand for rare earths grows, recycling increasingly becomes a key strategy for resource conservation and supply security.
