1.Background
There has been a noticeable transition in the energy sector, and the progressive move towards renewables is clearly noticeable. However, not anything that seems viable can remain so at the end of the life cycle. In photovoltaic panels (PV), this, at least, is the most common issue. The next challenge of the solar panel industry is to safely eliminate or recycle end-of-life components to end the energy cycle loop. Reuse or value-added recovery/reuse is superior to recycling in the waste management strategy. Around 2.5 million metric tones of solar panel waste were reported worldwide by the end of 2016 from the International Renewable Energy Organization (IRENA). By 2050, IRENA predicted it would exceed 75 million tones.
Glass, polymers, aluminum, copper, and small quantities of silver, tin, and other composites are the major weight contributor to the standard crystalline silicon-PV module. In most cases, PV waste gets disposed of in a landfill. This can cause major environmental emission concerns due to heavy metals in PV modules – for example, lead and tin. Besides, there are also precious metals such as silver and copper, which, if retrieved, pose a valuable incentive. Methods are built worldwide to recycle solar panels in order to reduce the environmental effects of end-of-life panels and regain some useful components/materials or something worthy out of the old PV modules. Current recycling techniques, however, are primarily focused on downcycling systems, which only recover a portion of materials and value, which encourages the need to do R&D in this field.
2.Proposed Project
The Project will review different recycling techniques for solar PV panels. The brief review will include the current scenario of PV recycling in the world. Comparisons, along with the merits and demerits of various recycling schemes. We will also figure failure scenarios that continue with non-functional modules and their management activities—identifying contributing factors and faults which may help to detect the extent of the damage. What are the best-case scenarios that can be implemented depending upon the type of panels? Policy planning, including the duty of the producer to promote the recycling of solar waste panels. Also, the reasons behind the lack of incentives for recycling which is the obvious difficulty for the treatment of solar waste. Considering the Paris Agreement for climate change, how recycling of PV panels plays a vital role in eliminating the CO2 emissions will also be discussed.
