Line for recycling of photovoltaic panels
That's because as solar power becomes more popular, more and more panels will reach the end of their life. Let's take an in-depth look at photovoltaic panel recycling technology and how it works.
Composition of a photovoltaic panel:
PV panels are constructed similar to a sandwich, with the cell in the center. About 90% of commercial PV panels use silicon as a semiconductor to convert light into electricity. Each cell has thin strips of metal (usually silver) on the surface of the silicon wafer that carries the current into the panel's copper conductors. The battery cells are wrapped in a protective barrier, usually a clear plastic called EVA. The top is covered with a layer of glass, and the back is another type of plastic, such as PET. The entire battery plate is surrounded by an aluminum frame. This layered structure protects the battery cells from the elements while also making the panels difficult to disassemble at the end of their life.
Currently, there are several main methods of recycling PV panels:
Reuse: This is the simplest and least expensive recycling method. Through reuse, we can reuse panels that have failed but still have some efficiency, or at least recycle some of the components. For example, a panel that costs about $55 may sell for about $22 if it is re-sold, or its components may sell for as much as $18 in total.
Mechanical recycling: this is a common recycling method that involves disassembling the panels and separating their components. Its main equipment contains:
Aluminum frame remover: used to remove the aluminum frame of solar panels.
Glass Removal Machine: Used to remove the glass from solar panels.
Twin shaft pulverizer: for pulverizing the battery panels.
Grinding Machine: For further processing of the panels.
Sorting Machine: For separating different materials.
Pulse Dust Collector: Used to collect the dust.
My technology can effectively recycle valuable materials in solar panels, such as aluminum, glass, silicon powder, plastic, and metal powder. These materials can be reused or remanufactured. It has a high degree of automation, saves labor costs, and contributes to environmental protection and resource utilization.
As a company specializing in the manufacturing of waste solar panel recycling equipment, their equipment can efficiently disassemble and separate used PV modules, realizing advanced recycling of various valuable components and laying a solid foundation for the development of PV circular economy.
