Marco Diani, Assistant Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Politecnico di Milano, is advancing research on the optimisation of mechanical recycling of composites and their reintroduction into high-value applications.

As part of the RECREATE project, his team is developing a novel process called high-voltage fragmentation (electro-fragmentation). This innovative approach enables the liberation and recovery of carbon- and glass-fibre reinforced composites with improved properties compared to conventional recycling methods.
