NEW WAYS TO RECYCLE COMPOSITES AND BIOCOMPOSITES FROM WINDBLADES AND AIRPLANES (EROS AND ELIOT PROJECT)

conference paper
The results of two ongoing projects related to the recycling of composites and biocomposites are presented. The first one is the ELIOT project which studies until pilot plant level the best end-of-life (EoL) route for biocomposites and the second one is the project EROS, in this project residues from the wind blades (made of glass fiber and polyester resin) and from the aeronautic sector (made of carbon fiber and epoxy resin) are recycled by pyrolysis and solvolysis techniques to obtain powder glass and glycols for the ceramic sector and carbon fiber for the transport sector. Both projects are being coordinated by AIMPLAS (Plastics Technology Centre), ELIOT is a European project in collaboration with the Dutch TNO research center and EROS is a national project with the collaboration of the ITC (Institute of ceramic technology) research center and Spanish companies (Fritta, Keraben, Reciclalia and Sofitec).
