Vision:
CFRP is a sustainable, recyclable, non-hazardous material that complies with relevant EU and federal/state regulations.
Goals:
- high reuse value
- ecologically acceptable processes lead to ecologically acceptable products
- the engagement of the CU solidarity community with this topic generates an added value that cannot be achieved by the individual member
Current Focus:
CFRP recycling with supercritical water.
Value-added applications for rCF and rCF semi-finished products (yarns, nonwovens, oriented semi-finished products) – see WG rCF Applications
- Recycling of thermoplastic composites
- Recycling of CFRP waste that is no longer economically recyclable
- LCA
- Aviation
- mechanical engineering
- automotive applications
