Modified cellulose removes 99% of lead from solar cell recycling waste
Original: Modified cellulose removes over 99% of lead from methanol-based solar cell recycling waste
Researchers have developed a modified cellulose material that removes over 99% of lead from waste generated when recycling methanol-based perovskite solar cells. The finding addresses one of the main environmental hurdles to commercialising this emerging solar technology, offering a low-cost way to prevent toxic lead contamination during recycling and disposal of damaged or expired panels.
Why now: Interest in cleaner perovskite solar cell recycling as the technology moves toward commercial use
