Abstract The growing adoption of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technologies in the dental industry has led to increase production of zirconia waste powder (ZWP), generated during the milling process of dental prostheses. Efficient recycling and processing of ZWP are essential to recover valuable metals and mitigate environmental impacts. This study examines the separation of zirconium Zr(IV) and yttrium Y(III) from ZWP via the use of Amberlite A27 chloride fo
