The recycling of photovoltaic modules is becoming an increasingly important focus for the rapidly growing solar industry. This is because the volume of end-of-life or damaged PV modules is rising, and repowering projects are being implemented.
High-quality recycling demonstrates that old PV modules are a source of raw materials, not waste!
A photovoltaic module consists of numerous valuable materials. These include glass, aluminium, silicon, copper, silver and plastics.
Our mechanical, industrial recycling process focuses on recovering these valuable materials efficiently and in high-quality grades.
Where are the recovered materials used?
- Glass – high-quality smelting applications
- Aluminium – aluminium smelters
- Copper, silicon, silver – refineries
In this way, the materials enter the processing industries as high-quality secondary raw materials.
