This study compares the difficulties of recycling Lead Acid Battery (LAB) and Lithium-Ion Battery (LIB) wastes, emphasizing the need to implement efficient battery recycling procedures towards a circular economy.
Inappropriate recycling operations release considerable amounts of lead particles and fumes emitted into the air, deposited onto soil, water bodies and other surfaces, with both environment and human health negative impacts. Lead-acid batteries are the most widely and commonly used rechargeable batteries in the automotive and industrial sector.
In China, the world''s largest producer and consumer of lead-acid batteries (LABs), more than 3.6 million tons of waste lead-acid batteries (WLABs) are generated every year, yet only 30% of them can be recycled in a
solution to the environmentally sound management of waste lead-acid batteries. 1 Heinstock, ICME study 2. 1. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND 7. The physical and chemical properties of lead such as its malleability and resistance to corrosion were already known from the ancient civilizations. Lead has been mined and smelted, indeed, for at least 8,000 years. This is
Because lead is toxic to the environment and to humans, recycling and management of waste lead-acid batteries has become a significant challenge and is capturing much public attention....
In most countries, nowadays, used lead-acid batteries are returned for lead recycling. However, considering that a normal battery also contains sulfuric acid and several kinds of plastics, the recycling process may be a potentially dangerous process if not properly controlled.
The insufficient management of spent LABs is not only causing significant secondary pollution to the environment by emission of lead-containing waste water, Pb
• Lead-acid batteries (waste code D220) and nickel-cadmium batteries (waste code D150) are classified as reportable priority waste. For businesses handling small quantities of lead-acid or nickel-cadmium batteries please see EPA''s website for up to date information on EPA''s expectations for management and transport requirements.

In this paper, we have comprehensively reviewed the methods of recycling waste LABs. Particularly, we focused on the valuable component of waste lead paste and critically evaluated the pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical techniques associated with it.
In China''s spent lead-acid battery (LAB) recycling market, there is a fundamental issue of irregular recycling due to the illegal industrial chain''s vicious price
At least two problems are limiting the Orderliness and sustainability of final disposal of waste LABs: one is that a large number of waste LABs is entering illegal channels, and the other is potential environmental and health risk. Increasing production of secondary lead has revealed that china''s waste LABs is the global issue.

Lead-acid battery (LAB) is a well-established battery system. It still holds a large share of the battery market nowadays and intensively used in automotive, power back-up systems and stationary applications (Ambrose et al., 2014, Li et al., 2014, Parker, 2001).The advantages of LABs are low resource and manufacturing cost, high operational safety, relatively portable
In China''s spent lead-acid battery (LAB) recycling market, there is a fundamental issue of irregular recycling due to the illegal industrial chain''s vicious price competition. Investigating stakeholders'' behavior evolutions
China produces a large number of waste lead-acid batteries (WLABs). However, because of the poor state of the country''s collection system, China''s formal recycling rate is

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) recycling has dominated the number of patent applications and articles published, followed by lead-acid batteries, nickel–metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries, and nickel–cadmium (Ni–Cd) batteries. Recycling enterprises have more distributed over patents, while universities or research institutions contribute more to literary publications.
To prevent improper disposal of battery waste, recycling approaches can be adopted, which can in turn help reduce landfill waste and enhance environmental quality. This study compares the difficulties of recycling Lead Acid Battery (LAB) and Lithium-Ion Battery (LIB) wastes, emphasizing the need to implement efficient battery recycling procedures towards a circular economy.

China produces a large number of waste lead-acid batteries (WLABs). However, because of the poor state of the country''s collection system, China''s formal recycling rate is much lower than that of developed countries and regions, posing a serious threat to the environment and human health.
Lead-acid batteries (LABs) have become an integral part of modern society due to their advantages of low cost, simple production, excellent stability, and high safety performance, which have found widespread application in various fields, including the automotive industry, power storage systems, uninterruptible power supply, electric bicycles, and backup
1 Introduction. With the rapid development of the automobile industry, the production of lead–acid batteries (LABs) as the automotive ignition power source and energy storage devices has experienced enormous growth during the past few decades. [] Up to 11.7 million tons of refined lead (Pb) were used in the manufacture of LABs, accounting for over
Under the Universal Waste Regulations, 40 CFR 273, there are permissible treatment activities. The generator may remove the lead-acid batteries from the devices they are powering; discharge them so as to remove the electric charge; remove the electrolytes as long as the batteries are reclosed immediately after removal; or regenerate them.
Because lead is toxic to the environment and to humans, recycling and management of waste lead-acid batteries has become a significant challenge and is capturing much public attention....
USA issued the Resource Conservation and Restoration Act (RCRA) in 1976, and established a framework for hazardous waste management. 35 Particularly, New York and California are the forerunners of the US in LIBs recycling. 36 In 2006, California Battery Recycling Act (AB1125) was enacted, requiring the establishment of a battery collection system for multi
In China, the world''s largest producer and consumer of lead-acid batteries (LABs), more than 3.6 million tons of waste lead-acid batteries (WLABs) are generated every year, yet only 30% of them can be recycled in a well-regulated manner, while the remaining 70% are recycled through informal channels, resulting in serious waste of resources and e...
The insufficient management of spent LABs is not only causing significant secondary pollution to the environment by emission of lead-containing waste water, Pb smelting dust/SO 2 and high-lead containing slag, but it requires high amount of primary lead production in order to complement the lead loss in the life cycle of lead-acid battery
