Batteries contain a number of heavy metals and toxic chemicals
Battery recycling is a recycling activity that aims to reduce the number of batteries being disposed of as municipal solid waste. Batteries contain a number of heavy metals and toxic chemicals and disposing of them by the same process as regular trash has raised concerns over soil contamination and water pollution.
The battery is broken apart in a hammer mill, a machine that hammers the battery into pieces. The broken battery pieces are then placed into a vat, where the lead and heavy materials fall to the bottom and the plastic floats. At this point, the polypropylene pieces are scooped away and the liquids are drawn off, leaving behind the lead and heavy metals. Each of the materials goes into a different recycling “stream”.
Polypropylene pieces are washed, blown dry and sent to a plastic recycler where the pieces are melted together into an almost liquid state. The molten plastic is put through an extruder that produces small plastic pellets of a uniform size. The pellets are put back into manufacturing battery cases and the process begins again.
There are basically four major chemistries for rechargeable batteries; Lithium-ion(Li-ion), Nickel, Cadmium(Ni-Cd), Nickel-Metal, Hydride(Ni-MH), and Lead-Acid.
