proportion of recycled, or reclaimed, material. Varying the proportion of recycled material into SMC’s alters the final product’s mechanical performance and therefore must be controlled [265]. It has been demonstrated that when recycled carbon fibre is used in place of virgin glass fibre as a filler in SMC’s, the mechanical performance (such as the modulus of elasticity) of the recycled component may exceed that of the virgin component containing glass fibre [266]. This approach, whilst it does demonstrate the ability to use recycled carbon fibres to produce a material, does not necessarily represent an economically or environmentally sustainable option for end-of-life CFRP’s. This is because the SMC’s in question are typically made with glass fibres, having a substantially lower embodied energy and production cost, whereas the carbon fibre embodied energy, which was greater initially, now includes the energy associated with the recycling process. The use of recycled fibre SMC’s in the automotive industry to produce body panels has been supported since the mid-1990’s [267] and it is reported that mass reductions of up to 55 % are achievable when carbon fibre is used over other materials [268]. Attempts to devise economically viable processes for recycling GFRP have been presented, with this being the predominant method of recycling on an industrial scale [269]. The economic case for carbon fibres is different in that the particularly attractive properties of CFRP’s are dependent upon the length, volume fraction and alignment of the carbon fibres. Thus, in order to produce high value products there is typically a requirement to recover carbon fibres as opposed to finely milled particles. Comminution has been successfully employed to produce low loading sports equipment from recycled CFRP’s, by grinding the material into a fine powder prior to incorporation into a secondary CFRP [270]. 66

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
