Due to the development of new photovoltaic technologies, there is a need to research new recycling methods for these new materials. The recovery of metals from photovoltaic (PV) modules would reduce the consumption of raw materials. Therefore, the development of recycling technologies for used and damaged modules of newer generations is important for environmental reasons. The aim of the research is to shed light on the nature of the chemical reactions that occur in recycling technology for second-generation photovoltaic modules. This work is focused mainly on cells made of Cadmium Telluride (CdTe). It was proven that prior thermal delamination was necessary. Moreover, an improvement in understanding of the recovery process depending on used leaching solution was achieved.
由于新光伏技术的发展,有必要研究针对这些新材料的新型回收方法。从光伏(PV)组件中回收金属将减少原材料的消耗。因此,出于环境原因,开发新一代废旧和损坏组件的回收技术非常重要。该研究的目的是阐明在第二代光伏组件回收技术中发生的化学反应的本质。这项工作主要集中在由碲化镉(CdTe)制成的电池上。事实证明,预先进行热分层是必要的。此外,在理解取决于所使用的浸出溶液的回收过程方面也取得了进展。
