Old wind turbine blades turned into graphene using electricity: Study

Wind turbine blades are challenging to dispose of due to their long-lasting materials, which complicate recycling efforts. A research team from Tsinghua University has created a method for transforming discarded blades into silicon carbide and graphene. The process requires a rapid temperature increase using electrical pulses, which is effective in material recovery.
