Near- and supercritical solvolysis of carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRPs) for recycling carbon fibers as a valuable resource: State of the art (2012, background): “[8, 35] Adherent Technologies Inc (ATI) [8] in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA has worked on the recycling of carbon fibre composites based on epoxy”
Current status of recycling of fibre reinforced polymers: Review of technologies, reuse and resulting properties (2015, methodology): “In order to facilitate the reuse of rCFs it G. Oliveux et al. / Progress in Materials Science 72 (2015) 61–99 95 seems to be necessary to develop ready-to-use semi-products, like those using vCFs to manufacture SMCs, BMCs, laminates or preforms.”
Recycling of fiber-reinforced composites and direct structural composite recycling concept (2014, background): “Thermal recycling processes provide different degrees of energy and material recovery using heat to break the scrap composite, as can be observed from Figure 1.(5) Thermosetting polymers (e.”
Developing plant fibre composites for structural applications by optimising composite parameters: a critical review (2013, background): “The perceived scale of the problem has even led to stringent government legislations, such as the EU Directive on Landfill of Waste (Directive 99/31/EC) and the End-of-life Vehicle Directive (Directive 2000/53/EC), which are seen as barriers to the development or even continued use of FRPs in some m”
Microwave pyrolysis as a method of recycling glass fibre from used blades of wind turbines (2012, background): “Recyclate fillers must, of course, be able to compete with existing virgin fillers that are available in the market, which has been found to be problematic.(9) Another possibility is to pyrolyse the polymer matrix, whereby the fibre can be recovered.”
CFRP-Recycling Following a Pyrolysis Route: Process Optimization and Potentials (2009, background): “Among the different known recycling processes, pyrolysis is very promising to fit these demands [1].”
