Guanma Machinery Solar Panel Recycling Machine Manufacturer provides two processes for recycling waste solar panels: crushing process and pyrolysis process. The crushing process is suitable for single-glass solar panels, with low cost, but low silver recovery rate. The pyrolysis process is suitable for double-glass solar panels, with large processing capacity, high purity and high recovery rate. Customers can choose the process route according to their own raw materials.
Guanma Machinery optimizes solar panel recycling machine cost through energy-saving design, scalable capacity, and minimal operating expenses. Explore solar panel recycling solutions now.

Flow Chart

1. Frame Removal Machine: The fully automatic pv panel frame removal machine uses the hydraulic disassembly principle to efficiently and safely remove the aluminum frame of the photovoltaic panel for recycling. Remove aluminum frames and junction boxes.
2. Glass Removal Machine: The solar panel glass removal machine is a device specially used to separate the glass layer of photovoltaic panels from other components (such as silicon circuit chips, packaging materials, backplanes, etc.).
3. Crushing and Sorting Production Line: The crushing and sorting production line mainly processes the back panel raw materials mainly composed of copper, silver and silicon powder after removing the aluminum frame and glass. After the main pre-treatment crushing, crushing and grinding, the plastic and metal are separated.
4. Pyrolysis Process Line: After removing the aluminum frame and glass, the remaining materials (mainly silicon, metals, cables, etc.) are directly fed into the pyrolysis treatment line. producing combustible gases, liquid oil, and solid residues (such as metal oxides, silicon powder, etc.)..
5. Extraction of Precious Metal: After crushing or pyrolysis, the metal content mainly is copper, also will have some silver mixed in silicon. Will use silver electrolytic refining equipment to extraction silver, to get purity silver.
