Abstract:-This work examines identifying reuses for wind-turbine blades that are retired when they reach the end of their technical life. Wind-turbine blades are made from fibercomposite materials, for which effective material-based recycling technologies are extremely limited. An approach to avoid or postpone recycling is to repurpose wind-turbine blades in other applications, as they should not be reused as windturbine blades for safety reasons.However, identifying promising reuses for wind-turbine blades is challeng… Show more
