“…Hence, the environmental impact of chemical recycling remains questionable. 55 Nevertheless, the concept of chemical recycling remains promising, provided that future research efforts focus on methods that are energy-efficient and produce organic components that can easily be reclaimed from the selected solvent. This topic and the, mainly academic, progress made so far is further discussed in the next chapter.…”

The outstanding performance of conventional thermosets arising from their covalently cross-linked networks directly results in a limited recyclability. The available commercial or close-to-commercial techniques facing this challenge can be divided into mechanical, thermal, and chemical processing. However, these methods typically require a high energy input and do not take the recycling of the thermoset matrix itself into account. Rather, they focus on retrieving the more valuable fibers, fillers, or substrates. To increase the circularity of thermoset products, many academic studies report potential solutions which require a reduced energy input by using degradable linkages or dynamic covalent bonds. However, the majority of these studies have limited potential for industrial implementation. This review aims to bridge the gap between the industrial and academic developments by focusing on those which are most relevant from a technological, sustainable and economic point of view. An overview is given of currently used approaches for the recycling of thermoset materials, the development of novel inherently recyclable thermosets and examples of possible applications that could reach the market in the near future.

“…The cracking of the thermoset matrix, mostly flexible or rigid foam mixtures, produces a polyol which can be reintroduced into the PU raw material cycle. An issue is that the separation of organic substances from the solvent requires a lot of energy and that the frequent use of hazardous solvents makes the impact of chemical recycling questionable (Shuaib and Mativenga, 2017…”

“…Ook onderscheiden chemisch recyclen en thermisch verwerken zich van verbranden (met of zonder energieterugwinning) omdat hierbij het kunststofafval wordt omgezet in kooldioxide (CO 2 ) en waterdamp. De moeite die verricht moet worden voor het recyclen is bij chemisch recyclen en thermisch verwerken navenant groter dan bij mechanisch recyclen, wat vaak tot uitdrukking komt in hoger energiegebruik, hogere verwerkingstarieven en lagere potentiële milieuwinsten [Shuaib et al 2017, Broeren et al 2018]. Daar staat een intrinsiek voordeel tegenover dat opgenomen verontreinigingen kunnen worden verwijderd.…”
