About Us
Sepratech brings together a team with a wealth of knowledge within their respective industries. Our experts in waste and recycling, sit on the board of directors of a respected organisation that represents the UK in Parliament for the waste industry. Bringing an understanding of the limitations and needs around specific waste streams and how these can be appropriately dealt with in line with legislative requirements.
Our separations expert has over 35 years experience in the field, with patented processes while our systems and controls group allows for in-depth knowledge of implementing on and offshore technologies allowing for a complete, portable recycling solution.
The Problem
The University of Cambridge estimates wind turbine blades will generate 43 million tonnes of waste by 2050.
While the majority of wind turbine components can be recycled, particularly steel and copper wires, the fibreglass blades can’t.
Just in the next two to three years, globally, around 14,000 wind turbines blades are reaching the end of their usable life - that’s almost 50,000 tonnes of blades that are currently destined for landfill or incineration.
Our Solution
Sepratech first take the blades and run them through our innovative separation process, unlike the current methods of blade destruction and cutting. Our process allows for a safe, environmentally friendly method of separating the blade into its individual constituent components. Just to merely cut a single blade into sections would normally take a three-man team three days to complete. Our process takes this down to a matter of hours. This is then run through our separation process allowing us to recover the individual compounds such as metal and carbon for reintroduction into industry.

We Have The Answer
Tomorrows Technology Today
"As we strive to achieve net-zero, offshore wind capacity globally is set to grow rapidly to meet our low carbon energy needs. It’s therefore vital that we work to minimise the direct impact on our environment. Having spent more than a decade looking for a long term, viable solution to the recycling of wind turbine blades and other carbon based products, I am excited to say Sepratech Limited has the solution; bringing to the table a new and innovative way to recycle the existing fleet of wind blades.
