Device for separating mixture of glass breakage and cell breakage i.e. silicon broken wafer, during recycling of old solar module, has rods that together with counter wall form gap of specific width perpendicular to longitudinal direction

摘要

The device (1) has two filters (4) comprising multiple rods (6) with a diameter (D) extending along a longitudinal direction (5). The rods together with a counter wall form a gap (7) of width (B) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The width of the gap is 0.5 mm. The diameter of the rod is 30 mm. The number of rods is 20. The rods are rotatably driven around an axis (8) parallel to the longitudinal direction, where the rods are arranged in level. The rods are arranged on a circle to form a sieve screen. The filters are arranged one behind the other in a cascade manner. An independent claim is also included for a method for separating a mixture of glass breakage and cell breakage.
