What is Solar Panel?
Solar panels are specialized devices for absorbing the sun’s rays and converting them into electricity or heat. Also, solar power is now the fastest-growing energy source in the world. About 500,000 solar panels were installed worldwide every day. The design life of a solar panel is approximately 30 years, so it is important to treat the end-of-life solar panels in a proper way. So recycling scrap solar panels is a good solution and solar panel shredder is one of the most important recycling machines during the whole recycling process.

Why Recycle Solar Panels?
Solar panels consist of the aluminum frame, silicon solar cells and synthetic material that encapsulates the silicon. It contains other metals like metals lead, copper, gallium and cadmium. It’s important to recycle solar panels, otherwise, valuable resources will end up in landfills. Furthermore, solar panels contain heavy metals, such as cadmium and lead, which could pollute the environment if not properly treated.
What’s the recycling process of solar panels?
Recycling solar panels is a relatively complex task because they contain many different types of materials. The various materials must be separated to be properly recycled. The first step is the disassembly and dismantling of the waste solar panels. After that, it is shredding, manual sorting, magnetic separation of different waste types, granulation, further separation, etc.
