Digital Product Passport as Digital Carrier for Information of Life Cycle Assessment: A Feasibility Study of Solvolysis on Composite Recycling for Wind Turbines Blades
摘要
The study incorporates the concept of a digital product passport as a data carrier for tracking the end-of-life of wind turbine blades across the processes value chain, integrating circular economy principles into the business model. Evaluation of a novel chemical recycling process for wind turbine blades using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) suggests that the chemical recycling process has significantly reduces environmental impacts when compared to landfill disposal and offers potential economic benefits. However, scalability and material recovery efficiency remain key factors for widespread adoption.
