Digestion and leaching are known as part of the main processing pre-treatment method in the extraction of rare earth elements (REEs). This work aims to carry out the sensitivity analysis of the liquid–solid (L/S) ratio, the type of acids as well as the number of reactors for the recovery of REEs, na...
