Solar Panel Recycling Market to Reach USD 2.1 Billion by 2033
As global solar capacity advances toward multi-terawatt levels, a critical question is emerging alongside the expansion of photovoltaic (PV) infrastructure: what happens when solar panels reach the end of their operating life? This question now guides the evolution of the Solar Panel Recycling Market, a sector gaining momentum as decommissioned PV modules increase and resource […]
Closing the Loop for PET Trays
Tray-to-tray recycling is becoming a recognized approach for advancing circularity in plastic packaging, especially for food-grade applications. The PET tray stream has long been underutilized: around one million tons enter the EU market each year, yet about 70% is still lost. Recent EU legislation such as the SUPD and PPWR is now driving change and […]
Fire Reduction by Employing AI
The German company Korn Recycling has reduced a major safety risk in its sorting plant in Albstadt: fires caused by improperly disposed lithium-ion batteries.
