Holmium is a rare earth element that has several applications in various industries. It is used in the nuclear technology in control rods to absorb neutrons. It regulates the fission process and improves reactor safety. It is used in the manufacturing of lasers that emit infrared light and used in medical procedures such as kidney stone removal. This laser is also used in minimally invasive prostate surgery as it offers precision and reduces tissue damage. Its isotope is used in targeted cancer therapies like radioembolization and intratumoral treatments for liver and prostate cancers. It is utilized in materials science as a coloring agent for glass and ceramics, and it is also used for calibration standards for optical spectrophotometers. It has strong magnetic properties that are utilized in the production of high-performance permanent magnets used in MRI machines and data storage technologies.
The market of holmium market is driven by various factors. Its usage in nuclear energy, medical imaging, and advanced materials contributes to its market growth. Its growing usage in nuclear reactors to work as a neutron absorber boosts its demand. The demand for holmium lasers in medical applications such as urology further adds up to its demand. Its utilization of telecommunications, clean energy technologies, research, etc., further contributes to its demand. Factors like the limited availability of holmium deposits lead to supply constraints and price instability that affect industrial holmium procurement. Also, its extraction and processing are costly, which further affects its prices and availability. The presence of substitute materials, along with strict regulations governing the mining and processing of rare earth metals, further affects its procurement around the globe.
Raw Material for Holmium Production
According to the Holmium manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Holmium include Lanthanum Phosphate Ores-Sulfuric Acid-Sodium Hydroxide.
Manufacturing Process of Holmium
The extensive Holmium production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:
- From Lanthanum Phosphate Ores, Sulfuric Acid, and Sodium Hydroxide: The manufacturing process of holmium metal starts with the extraction of holmium oxide from lanthanum phosphate ores. In this process, the ore is crushed and ground, followed by electromagnetic beneficiation to isolate holmium. The concentrated ore is treated with hot sulfuric acid to produce soluble sulfates followed by their neutralization with sodium hydroxide. After that, ammonium oxalate is added to convert the rare earth salts into insoluble oxalates that are annealed to form oxides. These oxides are dissolved in nitric acid that isolates holmium oxide through ion exchange techniques. Finally, the pure holmium oxide is reduced using high-temperature reactions to get holmium metal.
Holmium is represented by the symbol Ho and atomic number 67. It is a soft, malleable, and silvery-white metal that belongs to the lanthanide series. It has an atomic mass of around 164.93 g/mol with a melting point of 1474 degrees Celsius and a boiling point of about 2700 degrees Celsius. It has a density of around 8.80 g/cm³. It shows a hexagonal close-packed (hcp) crystal structure that becomes ferromagnetic below 19 K and has the highest magnetic moment of any naturally occurring element. It tarnishes slowly in the air to form a yellowish oxide layer. It reacts with oxygen to form holmium(III) oxide and reacts with water to produce holmium(III) hydroxide. It is stable in dry air but oxidizes quickly in moist conditions. It is electropositive with an electronegativity of 1.23 and has a trivalent behavior in reactions.
