A single wind turbine blade weighs between 15,000-30,000 pounds and measures 100-300 feet long, but recycling retired blades has been an issue for the industry. Ohio-based Canvus wants to change that with their wind turbine blade benches and more.
These giant blades, cut into 40-foot sections, are transported to Canvus’ manufacturing facility in Avon where they are finished with epoxy paint. Other recycled materials, such as old tires, plastic waste, etc., are then worked into the design. This means each piece is different, and so far, benches have been shipped to 30 different public spaces.
