Crystallization of Carbonates with a Core–Shell Structure: Insights into Cobalt–Iron Separation for Enhanced Critical Element Recovery
formation, preferably trapping Co inside carbonates, while Fe precipitated separately as iron hydroxides. These findings illuminate kinetics changes and heterogeneity evolution of the carbonation process in multi-ion systems and provide scientific foundations for Co-Fe isolation in coprecipitation processes for better Co recovery.
