Referring to fig. 1-2, fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a method for recycling a photovoltaic module according to the present invention, and fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of the photovoltaic module.
The invention provides a method for recycling a photovoltaic module, which comprises the following steps:
step one, disassembling the frame 1 of the packaged photovoltaic assembly and performing edge locking, and disassembling the frame 1 of the photovoltaic assembly. To the dismantlement of frame 1, in natural environment, use fixed clip to clip photovoltaic module, use the electric drill to destroy the lockstitching a border, the mode of the interior limit of reuse tapping frame 1 just can take off frame 1. The frame 1 is mainly made of Al alloy, can be melted and reused, and improves the recovery rate of the photovoltaic module.
And step two, disassembling the junction box and the cable of the backboard.
