Double breakthrough in PV recycling: glass quality for high-quality melting applications and industrial recovery of silicon
Münster, May 14, 2024 - Just under a year after opening the first Reiling PV recycling site in Germany, we have achieved two technological breakthroughs in the recycling of silicon-based PV modules. Firstly, the glass quality of the recovered PV glass has been significantly improved. In addition, silicon recovery was implemented on an industrial scale. This marks two important milestones in the processing of PV modules towards closing the recycling loop.

Call for World Recycling Day: The correct separation of recyclable materials for better recycling.
We would like to take today's World Recycling Day as an opportunity to call on private individuals and businesses to dispose of recyclable materials such as glass, PET bottles, wood and PV modules correctly. After all, recycling recyclable materials conserves primary raw materials and protects the environment. And that's not all - recycling can also save considerable amounts of energy and CO2 emissions in the manufacture of new products. One of the most important prerequisites for optimised recycling, however, is the collection and separation of recyclable materials by type.

Starting signal for the Swiss PV Circle project
Together with its Swiss partner - KWB Planreal AG - Reiling PV-Recycling is involved in the Swiss PV Circle project. The project around the initiators SENS eRecycling, Swissolar and the Bern University of Applied Sciences as well as other partners from the solar and energy industry intends to determine the optimal recycling strategy for photovoltaic modules at the end of their first life cycle based on data. Photovoltaic modules that are still efficient are to be put back on the market as second-hand modules.
