Chemical characterization and toxicological investigations for a new thermolysis reactor (TBI)
The recycling of rotor blades from wind turbines will become an important issue in the next decade. A main problem hereby constitutes the presence of glass and carbon reinforced composites. One possible solution is the thermolysis of such material to retrieve the glass and carbon fibers. TAB, a company based in Barth, Germany, will design and build a thermolysis reactor to achieve this goal. Understanding the process requires chemical characterization of the pyrolysis products and evaluation of their toxicological potential. Laboratory experiments with thermal analyzers will accompany the analyses with the material obtained from the reactor.
