Diverse pathways of solar panel waste glass recycling have been proposed; the most common is its reincorporation to the solar panel production [ 7, 8 ].
This kind of solar panel waste contains materials with high commercial value such as aluminum, copper, silicon, and silver, however, the glass represents around 75% [ 4 ]—80% [ 3] of the total mass of the photovoltaic waste.
Materials (Basel). 2023 Apr; 16 (7): 2848. Because of the increasing demand for photovoltaic energy and the generation of end-of-life photovoltaic waste forecast, the feasibility to produce glass substrates for photovoltaic application by recycling photovoltaic glass waste (PVWG) material was analyzed.
According to Rio et al. (2022), around 686 kg of glass can be recycled from every ton of PV waste . With a projected generation of 160 million tons of PV waste by 2050, this method could enable the recovery of at least 108 million tons of glass and thus make an important contribution to sustainable practices in the solar energy sector. 4.
