Project Background: The first national-level physical PV module recycling production line was launched in Tang County, processing 180,000 end-of-life panels annually. Built by Yingli Group under the MIIT Public Service Platform Project, it represents China’s first pilot production line solution for physical PV recycling.
Technical Highlights:
Physical recycling technology as core process
Comprehensive recovery rate of 96%
Annual capacity >50MW, approx. 180,000 panels
Annual processing of 4,400 tons end-of-life modules
Estimated annual CO₂ reduction of 29,000+ tons
Solution Deployed:
Equipment: 1 Physical Recycling Line + Silver Recovery System
Annual Capacity: 5,000 tons
Standards Participation: Drafted national standard “Crystalline Silicon PV Module Recycling Methods – Physical Method”
Silver: 50 kg (Recovery 95%, subject to extraction process)
Note: Silver recovery rate based on hydrometallurgical system performance. Actual recovery varies with silver content and extraction efficiency.
Future Plans: Yingli Group is establishing the North China Regional PV Module Recycling Center to accelerate industrialization of PV recycling technology, continuously advancing PV industry chain extension and closure.
