Article Synopsis
  • The growing need for rare earth elements (REEs) highlights the value of extracting them from coal ashes, a byproduct of coal power plants, as a more sustainable alternative to traditional mining.
  • Current methods of measuring REE content in coal ashes are inefficient and expensive, prompting the exploration of machine learning to streamline this process.
  • A multi-task neural network model has been developed to accurately predict REE concentrations based on easily measurable bulk composition, demonstrating enhanced performance compared to traditional methods and providing useful patterns for identifying coal ashes rich in REEs.
