The principal objective of this study is to be able to extract lanthanum oxide from monazite of Moemeik Myitsone Area. The treatment of monazite in this study involves three main steps; extraction of lanthanum hydroxide from monazite by using caustic soda, digestion with nitric acid and precipitation with ammonium hydroxide and calcination of lanthanum oxalate to lanthanum oxide.}, journal = {International Journal of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering}, volume = {2}, number = {10}, year = {2008}, pages = {238 - 241}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/3050}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/22}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 22, 2008}, }
