This document supports IEA Wind Task 45: Recycling Wind Turbine Blades, focusing on opportunities to reuse, repurpose, recycle, and recover materials from end-of-life blades. It brings together insights from a dedicated workshop and expert meetings… Recycling wind turbine blades
Circular Composites: A design guide for products containing composite materials in a circular economy Composites are increasingly used to optimize the performance of applications as their properties can be tuned to achieve the desired functionality.… Circular Composites
Much of the value of composites is in their composition; attempts to separate the fibres from the resin have so far only resulted in low grade materials. This outdoor furniture preserves the material’s structural value… Blade table
This bench preserves the composite material’s structural value by cutting panels directly from a used wind turbine blade. The slotted bench was made to explore the concept of structural reuse: reuse of structural material rather… Slotted Bench
