Japan's "off the rare" earth first start new initiatives alternative materials research and development projects

Japan's Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Economy on September 1 start of the use of supercomputer "Beijing " from the domestic exploitation of natural resources can be stabilized in the development and performance of rare earth metals also new material items. Project plan with 8 years to achieve practical , annual investment of about 150 billion yen, commissioned by the Ministry of Education East , JD , Tokyo Institute of Technology and a total of 2,500 researchers involved in research and development. This is the first time in Japan in the domestic rare earth metals research alternative materials .

Each containing a rare earth metal natural resources by most electronic form , based on the resource type of the arrangement of different electronic , but even other natural resources , as long as the electronic arrangement reorganization can produce rare earth metal containing natural resources the same performance . Japanese government over the new project is to use the law of the Seto Inland Sea from mixed seawater collected out of the sodium and rocks from domestic raw materials acquisition Shah out of silicon, calcium and about 20 kinds of natural resources , production and rare earth metals the same electronic arrangement of new materials. The "Beijing " will accurately calculate the type and proportion of electronic arrangement . In addition , in order to verify whether the material can be developed and played out the same performance rare earth metals , used in the hybrid engine of rare earth metals such as Toyota Motor Company will participate in the project consultancy basis . The project not only rare earth metals research alternative materials , and will study mostly imported from China and other rare metal indium alternative materials . Indium and other rare metals are widely used in new LCD SHARP "IGZO" a liquid crystal panel.

To get rid of dependence on China Rare Japanese government and private sectors in the exclusive waters looking for rare earth resources , R & D does not use a motor with a rare earth metal magnets, and dispersion of rare earth sourcing ground. However, there are still rare earth imports from China accounted for half. According to the Finance Ministry trade statistics , in 2012 Japan imported about 4,793 tons of rare earth , of which about 2,985 tons from China.
