@xssfox They should just burn the used solar panels, and put the waste into the air, just like coal. But really, the "logistics problem" is that they're simply not worth recycling. They're magic. A layer of silicon (sand, not rare!) less than the thickness of a hair, micrograms of dopant, glass, plastic, and a little aluminium, and it makes electricity. It makes about as much sense as a scheme to gather empty cereal boxes and refill. If you buried in landfill, nothing bad would come out.
