Determination of the Degree of Toxicity of EVA and Tedlar Polymers During the Disposal of Components of Crystalline Solar Panels

The article is devoted to the determination of the degree of toxicity of the polymer components EVA (ethyl vinyl acetate) and Tedlar® (polyvinyl fluoride) solar panels at the end of their useful life. A biotest analysis was chosen as a research method. The article discusses the main provisions of the selected method, as well as the advantages of the selected test organism. The article reflects the main provisions of the selected method. The results of a study to determine the toxicity of polymer components are also presented. Based on the data obtained, the dependences of the toxicity of compounds on time are constructed. These studies show the possible consequences of the interaction of the aquatic environment (rains) with the components of solar panels during their utilization (disposal).
