During the testing phase of the GEP ECOTECH's wind turbine blade recycling equipment, various components, including the double shaft shredder , single shaft shredder, and wind separator, were evaluated for their efficacy in the recycling process.
00:05 Double shaft shredder pre shredding: The double shaft shredder played a critical role in breaking down the wind turbine blades into smaller, more manageable pieces. Its dual shaft design allowed for efficient shredding of the tough composite materials used in the construction of the blades. By reducing the blades to a size suitable for further processing, the double shaft shredder facilitated downstream recycling operations.
00:54 Single shaft shredder fine shredding: The Single Shaft Shredder was instrumental in further refining the shredded material. With its single rotating shaft equipped with robust cutting blades, the Single Shaft Shredder ensured thorough and uniform shredding of the wind turbine blade components. This process produced a finer, more homogenous material ready for subsequent recycling stages.
1:30 Wind Separator separates light and heavy materials: The Wind Separator, another integral component of the equipment, played a pivotal role in separating the shredded blade materials based on their physical properties. Using airflow and mechanical separation techniques, the Wind Separator effectively separated lighter materials, such as fiberglass, from heavier components like metal reinforcements.
