Making Green Energy Greener: Researchers Propose Method for Wind Turbine Blades’ Recycling

Takeaways:

• Using pyrolysis which can break materials into their constituent parts, researchers from Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) and the Lithuanian Energy Institute have proposed this as a method for recycling wind turbine blades.
• Wind turbine blades made from glass fibre-reinforced polymer. This material is also used in car manufacturing, maritime vessels, oil and gas production, construction, sporting goods and more.
• Their methods is virtually waste free and will emit small amounts of carbon emissions.
