Tackling the Circular Economy Challenges—Composites Recycling: Used Tyres, Wind Turbine Blades, and Solar Panels
نویسندگان
چکیده
Transformation of waste into resources is an important part the circular economy. Nowadays, recovery materials in most effective way crucial for sustainable development. Composite offer great opportunities product development and high performance use, but their position a economy system remains challenging, especially terms material recovery. Currently, methods applied recycling composites are not always effective. The aim article to analyse from multilateral composites. manuscript presents three case studies related products manufactured composites: used tyres, wind turbine blades, solar panels. It shows advantages disadvantages currently composite utilisation further trends recycling. results show that increasing volumes end-of-life have led increased attention government, industry, academia.

متن کاملTesting and Condition Monitoring of Composite Wind Turbine Blades
In a wind turbine system, blades are one of the most critical components. They capture energy from wind and convert it to a mechanical energy for electricity power generation. However, once the blades are defective, the power generation efficiency of the turbine will be significantly affected. In worse case when the blade is seriously damaged, the turbine will have to be shut down completely fo...
