AB Some of the first-installed wind turbines will have to be replaced soon, as they areapproaching the end of their life span. These wind-turbine blades must be recycled,so their suitability to be added into concrete mixes as fibers is studied. Thus, a less-polluting fiber-reinforced concrete can be achieved, maintaining its mechanicalbehavior. To recycle numerous wind-turbine blades at an adequate rate, largeamounts of waste need to be added into concrete. This study aims to find out thesuitability of adding high amounts of this waste material (0% vol., 5% vol., and10% vol.). Testing yielded a slight decrease in fresh density and a higher occludedair content, yet largely maintaining its suitability for structural use according to thecompressive strength. The results showed that concrete with a high content ofcrushed wind-turbine blade is suitable for structural use, being it an effectivesolution to said current sustainability problems.
