Project Details
Description
Recycle, repurpose and reuse end-of-life wind blade composites – a coupled pre- and co-processing demonstration plant.
The aim of BLADES2BUILD is to improve and support circularity options of end-of-life wind blades by exploring three different circular stages:
- Direct re-use of the EOL wind blades with minimal refurbishment or processing.
- Re-purpose of individual materials constituents of the blades (and manufacturing waste).
- Recycling the blade and glass fiber textiles scraps from the wind blade manufacturing in cement/clinker co-processing as an alternative fuel.
