Verification of the Possibility of the Use of Secondary Raw Materials of Tubular Solar Panels as Fillers of Polymer Industrial Floors

Abstract:

The article reports on a hot topic over the last few years and the issue of recycling and further use of secondary raw materials from the solar panels. Recycling of solar panels is very difficult and complicated. Secondary materials that recycling generated so far have not found a application and their using is still not fully resolved. The research conducted on Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Civil Engineering (BUT) now being developed polymer materials used for industrial floors. These materials were incorporated secondary materials as fillers. It was thus replaced by a filler made from natural materials, which the Czech Republic is still declining. In the following text, which builds on earlier publications describe the procedures and results of new tests, which were conducted on these fuels, which confirms the possibility of the use of glass from solar panel in industrial polymer flooring systems.
