Installation of a solar and photovoltaic panel recycling plant for mono-crystalline and poly-crystalline panels. PV photovoltaic panel recycling line with a production capacity of up to 3000 kg/h.
The PV panel recycling plant can process solar panels complete with the aluminum frame to reduce processing time. Insiders estimate the break-even point of an efficient system at about 3000 T/year, although an economic balance seems achievable with smaller quantities using multipurpose lines as in this case. Significant, in this regard, to mention that by 2050 there will be 78 million tons of solar andphotovoltaic panels to be recycled creating a market of more than $15 billion with obvious positive repercussions for the circular economy.
The panel recycling equipment uses a special delamination mill developed and manufactured by Stokkermill specifically for processing photovoltaic and solar panels.
The panel recycling delamination mill makes it possible to avoid the pre-removal operations of the aluminum frame and the pre-delamination of the panel itself, which instead takes place automatically during the process, reducing manual activities and related time and costs while maintaining the quality of the output product. The plant enables recovery of reusable materials very close to 100% by weight.
The solar panel is separated into the following fractions:
- glass with particle size between 2 and 8 mm
- glass with particle size up to 2 mm
- plastic fraction EVA Ethylene Vinyl Acetate
- oven-ready aluminum fraction
- silicon powder fraction
- copper granulate fraction
After primary decomposition, the recovered materials can be further processed to improve their quality grade according to end customer requirements and marketing channels. Photovoltaic panel recycling plants made by Stokkermill have several features:
- the extreme flexibility of the system allows the treatment of panels of any size, of monocrystalline and polycrystalline panels, with or without aluminum frames, undamaged or damaged, without the need for prior partitioning
- relevant production capacities with the limited use of personnel and manual pre-treatment activities
- qualitative definition of output materials according to the requirements and demands of the delivery markets
- flexibility of the plant that is capable of processing other types of electronic waste, such as WEEE in the R4 group (printers, PCs, keyboards, photocopiers, other electronic devices, etc.).
