Composite Waste Recovery
Promoting By~Product Synergy by providing an information exchange to
Directly Connect
generators of composite wastes
with recyclers and byproduct material processors in an attempt to conserve the earth's strategic resources.
Multi Matrix Composite Wastes
The evolution of advanced manufacturing
techniques
has resulted in the development of
Multi Matrix Composite products and materials.
The replacement of traditional materials such as wood, metal and natural fibers
with synthetic materials that improve technical performance has created a new stream of production by-products and end of life wastes that the
recycling industry traditionally has not handled. Thus there is a learning curve to the migration to these
Multi Matrix Composite wastes.
Sputtering
Sputtering, an advanced manufacturing process, is a thin film coating technology
that produces multi layer laminates.
The Sputtering process generates by-products such as spent
Sputtering Target Residues.
One source of Multi Matrix Waste is contained in Liquid Crystal Displays.
LCD Scrap
is found in flat screen monitors, cell phone screens, automotive dash panel displays and a wide variety of electronic devices.
Carbon Fiber Composites
Please feel free to list any
Carbon Fiber Composite Wastes
you wish to recover.
Chemical
and thermochemical recovery methods are desirable due to the high fiber recovery yields
and resin recovery.
Carbon Fiber Recovery
is one of the fastest growing sectors in the recycling industry
and is driven by the economic value of the
recovered fiber
FRP Composite Wastes
The term FRP is commonly used referring to
Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP).
If you wish to recycle
FRP Composite Wastes
please feel free to ADD your inquiry to the online Composite Wastes Materials exchange.
Traditionally the most popular type of FRP refers to
Fiberglass Composites
but may also include natural fiber reinforcements.
Today FRP materials have expanded to encompass a wide range of Multi Matrix Composite Wastes.
Metal Content Composite Wastes
There are a large number of Multi Matrix materials that consist of a Metal layer
or contain metals as a part of the composite structure.
These metal content composites pose a particular challenge to recover both
the metal and the non-metal fractions.
This challenge is compounded when the metals are in an oxide or thin film form.
If you wish to recycle
Metal Content Composite Wastes
please ADD an inquiry to the online exchange.
We find a wide range of
Metal Content Residues
from production by-products and a growing accumulation of end of life wastes
from sources such as
Mixed Electronic Components
Automotive Electronics Scrap (AES)
Sensors and Switches
To maximize the recycling potential from Multi Matrix composite materials different
Recovery Methods
may have to be employed depending on the physical characteristics of the Composite Component Wastes
Inorganic Composite Wastes
The recovery of Non~Metallic Inorganic Content Composite Wastes may be assisted by the
use of the online exchange service.
Please feel free to list the
Inorganic Composite Wastes
you are seeking to recycle.
The exchange service accommodates Multi Matrix Composite Wastes that contain
ceramics, glass,
fiberglass,
refractories, minerals, oxides and inorganic residues.
Composite Recycling Questions
For anyone seeking current information or research data on the recycling of Fiberglass, Composites and Advanced Materials,
you may access and ask your
Recycling Questions
to a core group of experienced and knowledgeable recycling industry professionals.
There are several approaches or methods used to achieve Waste Composite Recovery.
Mechanical Recovery
Traditionally a physical
Mechanical
Recovery method has been used of shredding or grinding the waste and separating the liberated hard metals fraction.
Chemical Recovery
A Wet
Chemical
recovery method may be used to selectively separate complex matrix materials.
This method is sometimes preferred especially when higher value components are desired
or targeted to be recovered. In the Chemical Recovery method the use of solvents or acids are used to extract, recover and regenerate
Resins.
Thermal Reduction
The
Thermal
Reduction method may be applied on mass for a wide range of Multi Matrix Composite Wastes.
Thermal Reduction
facilitates the ultimate recovery of metallic and non-metallic materials.
The inorganic fraction may be separated into metallic and non-metallic materials.
The fraction that is not inorganic typically is classed as organic or hydrocarbon materials and
this fraction becomes feedstock in the
Bio Refining
process.
Fiberglass & Composite Equipment
The Fiberglass, Composites and Advanced Materials industry requires specialized
Composite Manufacturing Equipment.
If you wish to Buy or Sell fabrication equipment please make a listing on the Fiberglass World exchange.
If you wish to Buy or Sell
Used Fiberglass Equipment
you may make a listing into the exchange on Fiberglass World.
Continuing innovation in the development of
Composite Recycling Equipment
Systems and Technologies is leading to new efficiencies for Environmental Sustainability.
