  1. 1. End-of-life wind blade recycling through thermal process

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Kerstin Benz; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind Turbine Blades; Recycling; Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic; Molten Salt Pyrolysis;

    Abstract : Renewable energy production with wind turbines has been rising in the last 30 years and it is a crucial technology, which is necessary for the energy transition. As sustainable as the energy production of wind turbines is, the waste management of the blade material is not. Most of the blades end up on a landfill or get incinerated. READ MORE

  2. 2. Green Raven Structural Design : Optimization of Internal Structure for Blended Wing Bodies

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Oscar Ehrler; Anton Holmén; [2022]
    Keywords : UAV; Blended wing body; BWB; wing structure; Scots pine; Fiber reinforced plastic; FRP; Off axis loading of fiber reinforced plastic; wing mount;

    Abstract : The student inclusive Green Raven project of the KTH-Aero faculty requireda small blended wing model of their new flying wing design. The small scalemodel will be used for various flight tests. The goal of this specific project was tocreate an internal structure for the small scale model, including an outer shell. READ MORE

  3. 3. Effects of Temperature and Moisture Content on Young’s Modulus in Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyamide

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Joel Sandberg; Samuel Sjölin; [2022]
    Keywords : Polyamide; nylon 66; PA66GF25; glassfiber reinforced polyamide; Young’s modulus; Polyamid; nylon 66; PA66GF25; glasfiberförstärkt polyamid; Youngs modul.;

    Abstract : This thesis was made in cooperation with Roxtec. Roxtec specialises in cable sealingsolutions and are world leading in their area. In many of Roxtec’s products steel isused in the frame holding the sealing rubber. To lower Roxtec’s environmental foot-print plastic would be used instead in the frames if possible, more specific polyamide6. READ MORE

  4. 4. Characterization of Fiber Orientation and Weld Line Effects in Reinforced Plastics with Reduced CO2eq Emissions

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Material och tillverkning

    Author : Anders Tolf; Markus Johannesson; [2022]
    Keywords : Fiber-reinforced plastics; GFRP; Reduced carbon dioxide equivalent materials; Experimental; Uniaxial tensile test; Uniform fiber orientation plate; Tensile strength; Fiber orientation; Weld line; Fracture analysis; Microscopy;

    Abstract : With increasing emphasis and regulations on the environmental footprint in industries, the integration of reduced carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq) plastic materials is desirable. Fiber-reinforced plastic materials mechanical properties differ with varying fiber orientations. READ MORE

  5. 5. Mineral wool : From landfill to a sustaianble polymer composite

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Author : Noéll Sjöbeck; [2022]
    Keywords : recycling; sustainability; waste management; circular economy; mineral wool; construction and demolition industry; composites; polymers; återvinning; hållbarhet; avfallshantering; cirkulär ekonomi; mineralull; bygg- och rivningsindustri; kompositer; polymerer;

    Abstract : The focus of the project is recycling of the insulation material mineral wool. The aim is to investigate the potential of using post-consumer wool from landfill as fiber reinforcement in a polymer matrix. READ MORE
