Students collaborate to the creation of a toolkit about recycling of silicon based on PV modules. They tested a simple and effective method to assembly and disassembly a PV mini-module in order to reuse the components inside of it, such as Silicon, which is the main material in the panel. This method can be replicated at school, since it uses a very common object: a flat iron.

Students build a homopolar motor to demonstrate the Lorentz force. This force comes into action when electricity goes through a conductor which is inside a magnetic field. From the direction of rotation of the motor, it is possible to know the north and the south pole of the magnet. A short video shows the experiment.
