If the doping amount of the rare earth element is too high, the cost is higher.
Compared with the comparative example 1, the invention uses the silica gel carrier, the specific surface area of the porous silica gel microspheres is large, thus more adsorption sites can be formed, and the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent is increased; the silica gel microspheres are inorganic materials, so that the subsequent recovery treatment is more convenient.
