No they can not they are lamenates with cabon fiber a mix of that and fiberglass and a few other things so no thats why they landfill them.
The reason I say this is because I had a lifetime friend that was famous for making jet boat hulls. We experimented with many materials. I would have no problem producing a boat hull with those blades as a added material once ground up.
Cost effective? Juss curious
Not beneficial but it is a reasonable alternative than the landfill and could produce very tough and resilient materials for wet locations and for storm prone areas.
That does not mean they can't be ground up and added to resins for new products. No reason you couldn't use it and topcoat it for many things.
My understanding is the turbine blades do not bio-degrade.
Maybe in 100,000 years.
Million dollars idea: ship them to Hawaii and drop em in the volcano maybe weight them down with the nuclear crap they're shoving in that Arizona salt mine so it goes deep. If the basic geology they taught in school is close to correct we'll never have any problems out of it. /s
How about sending them to Easter Island and planting them next to those Moari heads so they can go surfing.
They’re made of silicon and carbon so no. It’s like burying a bottle. Just kick some dirt over it to make it disappear.
