Wind is a clean, efficient, fastest-growing, renewable energy source, which is extensively
applied for power generation. The expected design lifetime of a wind turbine lies between …

The application of fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites has increased substantially in
recent years as a result of need for lighter and stronger materials. Currently, the reuse and/or …

Decommissioning end-of-life wind turbine blades (EoL-WTBs) presents significant waste
management challenges. This comprehensive review explores the recycling of EoL-WTBs …

Highly crosslinked thermoset plastic waste is generally regarded as unrecycled materials
and dumped into landfills. To divert the waste from landfills, recycling thermoset waste as …

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites, reaching a production of approximately 2.56 million
tons in 2023 in Europe, display unique properties, yet they are disposed of at their end of …

Numerous tests are used to determine the performance of concrete, but compressive
strength (CS) is usually regarded as the most important. The recycled aggregate concrete …

The purpose of this paper is to present an integrated joint application of Life Cycle Analysis
(LCA) and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in order to evaluate the efficiency of different …

The extensive use of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites has inevitably
resulted in a large amount of FRP waste, posing a significant environmental threat. A recent …

The 3R (reuse, recycling, and recovery) management of waste wind turbine blades (WTBs)
is becoming a hot subject, since it has a great practical significance to dispose the upcoming …

It is estimated that there will be 85,000 tons of End-of-Life (EoL) wind turbine blades in
China by 2050. How to disposing discarded blades has become a significant problem …
