The state-of-the-art review identified three main types of treatment for photovoltaic panel recycling: mechanical, chemical, and thermal. Among these, mechanical treatment serves as a preliminary stage before the recovery of valuable elements, which is achieved through chemical or thermal processes.
The typical design of a photovoltaic panel . Thin-film modules, often known as second-generation panels, are built via semiconductor deposition onto glass or stainless-steel substrates. This category comprises amorphous silicon (a-Si), cadmium telluride (CdTe), and copper indium gallium selenide (CIGS) panels.
For photovoltaic panel recycling to be profitable, the process must be able to separate the PV components, thereby increasing the value of the recycled products. Consequently, several companies have emerged that specialize in managing electronic waste and have developed processes for recycling solar panel components.
The PV panel was placed on a conveyor belt that took it through a furnace at over 773.15 K, sufficient to break the insulating junction plates and the back sheet, thus allowing for the separation of the PV layers, where the glass was separated from the PV cells. On leaving the furnace, it was transported to a gravity drop point.
