The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Perovskite solar cells: An integrated hybrid lifecycle assessment and review in comparison with other photovoltaic technologies (2017, background): “which involve the reuse of GaAs wafers have been reported [47,52,53], but have not been demonstrated in high-volume production [44].”
Recycling of WEEEs: An economic assessment of present and future e-waste streams (2015, background): “Only through Directives and national governments decisions was possible to make producers responsible for their own products, by determining a great gear shift, to which it must be added the awareness that wastes are now seen as a resource and no more as issues [55–58].”
Economic Feasibility for Recycling of Waste Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic Modules (2017, methodology): “The plant useful life is estimated in 10 years, and the opportunity cost is fixed equal to 5% [22].”
