Recycling of silicon-based PV modules

During this activity, pupils are first introduced to the topic of solar photovoltaics (PV) understanding the basic principles about the composition of silicon PV panels and the importance of the recycling processes. Then, they will assemble and then disassemble a silicon photovoltaic mini-panel, simulating the thermal recycling process of Silicon PV panels.
