Recycled plastics in foamed core materials

Reference number
Coordinator Novoplast AB
Funding from Vinnova SEK 1 375 000
Project duration August 2023 - October 2025
Status Ongoing
Venture The strategic innovation programme SIP LIGHTer
Call SIP LIGHTer - Lightweight technologies for circular value chains

Purpose and goal

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The purpose of the project is to investigate the possibilities of recycling core material from wind turbine blades and using recycled plastic in foamed core materials. The goal is to produce a demonstrator in the form of a core material of recycled plastic.

Expected effects and result

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The project is expected to contribute to the recycling of wind turbine blades by increasing the profitability of recycling and producing core material from recycled material. The result is a more profitable recycling of wind turbine blades.

Planned approach and implementation

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The project is divided into work packages where AP2 will focus on the separation of foam from carbon fiber. I AP3 is investigating recycled raw materials and additives to be able to make turbine blades and in AP4 a demonstrator is being made.

The project description has been provided by the project members themselves and the text has not been looked at by our editors.
