Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for recovering a rare earth element, including subjecting a workpiece containing at least a rare earth element and an iron group element to an oxidation treatment, then turning the treatment environment into an environment where carbon is present, and subjecting an oxidation-treated workpiece to a heat treatment, thereby separating a rare earth element in the form of an oxide from an iron group element, according to which an oxide of a rare earth element can be efficiently separated from an iron group element at low treatment cost, and also wear and damage to the treatment container can be suppressed to allow the container to be used repeatedly for a long period of time.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for recovering a heavy rare earth element from a workpiece containing at least a heavy rare earth element and an iron group element, which can be put into practical use as a low-cost, simple recycling system. The method for recovering a heavy rare earth element from a workpiece containing at least a heavy rare earth element and an iron group element of the present invention as a means for resolution is characterized by including at least the following step: a workpiece is subjected to an oxidation treatment or mixed with an oxidation-treated R—Fe—B based magnet alloy, and then subjected to a heat treatment in the presence of carbon at a temperature of 1000° C. or more, thereby separating a heavy rare earth element in the form of an oxide from an iron group element.
