Raw material needs for the large-scale deployment of photovoltaics - Effects of innovation-driven roadmaps on material constraints until 2050

Estelle Gervais et al.

Summary: This paper evaluates the metal and metalloid requirements for next-generation photovoltaics on a global scale until 2050, highlighting the shortage of gallium, indium, arsenic, bismuth, and selenium. Strategies to mitigate risks, such as resource efficiency and alternative production processes, are discussed. Concerns are raised over the sustainability of multijunction solar cell technologies due to potential material shortages, calling for stronger integration of sustainable material use considerations in technological development.

A comparative state-of-technology review and future directions for rare earth element separation

Emmanuel Ohene Opare et al.

Summary: This study provides an overview of existing REE production and recovery pathways, highlighting the top three most explored separation techniques (leaching, solvent extraction, and plasma) and study fields (chemistry, engineering, and metallurgy). The dominant REE separation technique across various research fields was found to be the use of acids, bases, ionic liquids, and salts for leaching REEs. The study also suggests the agromining approach as a practical method for sustainable REEs recovery from secondary sources and end-of-life products.
