Life cycle assessment of an innovative high-value-recovery crystalline
The theoretical composition considered for the PV module consist of 0.07% silver, 0.9% copper, 2.9% silicon, 7.6% aluminum, and 70.0% glass, which represents an average of multi-crystalline and mono-crystalline silicon PV modules from the early 2000s that are reaching their end-of-life. 2.2.2 Functional unit
