01 / Test
Understand each reinforcement.
Representative material streams are assessed across different glass-fiber and carbon-fiber composite configurations.
Case study / SGL Carbon
Qualify a reliable route for composite material recovery.
Carbon Cleanup and SGL Carbon are working together in an ongoing CARB-E qualification project, connecting composite end-of-life material with a defined recovered-output route.
The project
An ongoing project built on extensive pre-qualification.
Before the operating route was defined, Carbon Cleanup and SGL Carbon carried out extensive advance testing with CARB-E. The work examines how the technology handles composite material with different glass-fiber and carbon-fiber reinforcements and supports the development of successful recovered-material products.
The qualification route
Test first. Define the route with the material.
02 / Refine
Develop the process route.
CARB-E processing is evaluated around the selected material, handling conditions and intended recovered-product route.
03 / Validate
Build on successful outcomes.
The ongoing work uses the results to support repeatable recovered-material products and their next applications.
Why it matters
A credible route is built before it is deployed.
The project demonstrates the CARB-E approach: qualify the material, refine a processing route and document the outcome for its next use. Project-specific quantities, test data, specifications and commercial details remain confidential.
