Abstract

A method for separating different types of material layers of a composite component that has at least one material layer that is transparent for visible light and at least one further material layer, is provided, wherein the light from an external source falls through the at least one transparent material layer into the at least one further material layer and there is at least partially absorbed. With the help of at least one gas discharge lamp, the light-absorbing material layer is heated in less than one second to separate material layers of the composite component. A device that can be used for this method comprises at least one separation chamber and therein at least one gas discharge lamp suitable for irradiation.
