Overview Approximately 86 per cent of the total global consumption of lead is for the production of lead-acid batteries, mainly used in motorized vehicles, storage of energy generated by photovoltaic cells and wind turbines, and for back-up power supplies (ILA, 2019). The increasing demand for motor vehicles as countries undergo economic development and …
Different types of batteries (BT''s) are also used every day and a significant amount of waste BT''s are created at the end of the day. Waste BT''s can lead to grave contamination of the atmosphere.
Hugh Morrow. International Cadmium Association 9222 Jeffery Road Post Office Box 924 Great Falls, VA 22066-0924 USA. Abstract. Total life cycle analyses may be utilized to establish the relative environmental and human health impacts of battery systems over their entire lifetime, from the production of the raw materials to the ultimate disposal of the spent battery.

The following batteries may be recycled at Princeton: nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cad), nickel-metal hydride, lithium, lithium-ion, mercury, silver and lead-acid. Used batteries containing hazardous metals (e.g. mercury, cadmium, lead, and silver) are classified as universal waste rather than hazardous waste.
Recovery processes of metals from waste batteries have also been investigated from a techno-economical point of view. Li et al. conducted a techno-environmental assessment for recovery …
The environment is seriously polluted due to improper and inefficient recycling of waste nickel−cadmium (Ni−Cd) batteries in China.
