Water-based recycling of perovskite solar cells

An international team has developed a new technique to recycle perovskite solar cells (PSC) made on glass substrates using a water-based solution. Tests showed that the recycled cells were as efficient and stable as the original devices.Scientists led by Linköping University and Cornell University have proposed a new technique to recycle perovskite solar cells made on glass substrates using a water-based solution. The novel approach is described…

Swedes develop next-gen solar cell that's fully recyclable

In a study published in Nature, a Linköping University research team has revealed how they developed a fully recyclable solar cell made from perovskite with the main solvent being water. “There is currently no efficient technology to deal with the waste of silicon panels. That’s why old solar panels end up in the landfill. Huge mountains of electronic waste that you can’t do anything with,” says Xun Xiao, postdoc researcher at the Department of …
