Re-employment of Wind Turbine Blades: PalletMach Contributes to Environmental Protection Innovation! The Perfect Combination of Solid Waste and Pallet Production.
Wind power generation is one of the most mature and large-scale development potential renewable energy sources after hydropower. As the core component of wind power generation equipment, wind turbine blades face significant wear and tear and need to be updated during their operation.
The Raw Materials Are Difficult to Handle
Discarded wind turbine blades are large, heavy, and made of complex, non-biodegradable materials, making them typical industrial solid waste. According to law, old wind turbine blades cannot be landfilled or incinerated. Traditional disposal methods, such as mechanical shredding and pyrolysis, can recover materials like steel and fiberglass, but the processing costs are high, creating substantial pressure for enterprises.
Environmental Concerns
In regions rich in wind power resources, many projects face ecological protection pressures. Effectively handling discarded wind turbine blades in an environmentally sustainable manner has become a pressing issue that needs to be addressed.
PalletMach's Solution
Recently, a contractor from a wind farm reached out to PalletMach, indicating that they had a large amount of old wind turbine blades that needed processing. After discussion, we discovered that these discarded blades are primarily composed of fiberglass, epoxy resin, and balsa wood composites. After processing, these materials can be turned into high-quality raw materials for the production of molded pallets.
Customized Production Line
In response to the client's needs, our engineering team developed a specialized High-efficiency Fully Automated Production Line for Wind Turbine Blade Conversion into Press Wood Pallets. This line not only addresses the disposal problem of discarded wind turbine blades but also produces marketable pallet products.
Main Process:
1. The fiber material processing equipment refines the raw materials into a fine and uniform texture (as shown in the image below).
2. The materials are then screened and fed into storage bins.
3. Automatically transported to the glue mixing system.
4. Automatic feeding and leveling of the materials.
5. Using the Press Pallet Machine, green and eco-friendly press wood pallets are formed. The Press Pallet Machine adopts a unique three-beam, four-column structure, ensuring a precise mold fit, producing products with no burrs. The press wood pallets have a smooth surface and higher load-bearing capacity!
6. Automatic removal and stacking.
This production line is fully automated, offering simplified operation, safety, and high work efficiency.
Advantages of the Produced Press Wood Pallets:
The cooperation between the two parties has been successfully established. We believe that this green and efficient press wood pallet production line will soon be put into operation, creating new business value for the company.
The client also mentioned plans to collaborate with the government to promote the green reuse of discarded wind turbine blades by producing eco-friendly pallets. This partnership not only demonstrates PalletMach's technical advantage in molded pallet equipment manufacturing but also highlights our consistent commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development goals.
In addition to discarded wind turbine blades, other materials such as various waste wood, wood shavings, sawdust, bulk straw, cotton stalks, reeds, miscanthus, bamboo, melon seed shells, and kraft paper can also be recycled into new pallets.
