Scientists Crack Wind Turbine Blade Recycling Problem With 2,000°C Breakthrough

RecentNews.uk

Scientists have found a new way to recycle tough wind turbine blades using extreme heat.

The process uses temperatures up to 2,000°C to break down composite materials.

Old blades are successfully upcycled into a silicon carbide-graphene additive for epoxy resin.

Early financial estimates suggest a profit potential of around $80 per ton.

Should recycling wind turbine blades be a legal requirement for energy companies in the UK?
