Firstly, the application scale of wind power blades at home and abroad and the trend of decommissioned wind power blades are introduced, and the international common disposal methods of decommissioned wind power blades（stacking, burying, and recycling） and their advantages and disadvantages are described. Secondly, the typical recycling methods of waste blade materials, namely mechanical recycling, thermal recycling, and chemical recycling, are systematically introduced, and the technical characteristics of the above three typical recycling methods are compared. Thirdly, the typical cases of product remanufacturing using retired wind power blades are summarized, including the preparation of recycled composite plates, the manufacture of concrete aggregates, the preparation of 3D printing consumables, etc. Finally, aiming at the difficult cutting performance of common wind power materials such as glass fiber composites and carbon fiber composites, the recycling processing technology and equipment of wind power blades are introduced, including cutting processing technology and equipment, crushing and crushing processing technology and equipment, etc.
