About Battery Recycling Recycling
Batteries power countless devices in our lives, from household electronics to vehicles. However, improper disposal of batteries can lead to environmental harm due to the hazardous materials they contain, such as lead, cadmium, and lithium.
Recycling batteries not only prevents these materials from contaminating soil and water but also allows for the recovery of valuable resources like metals that can be reused in manufacturing.
Different types of batteries require specific recycling methods. Lead-acid car batteries are highly recyclable, with over 99% being processed in the U.S., while rechargeable batteries from devices like laptops and smartphones often require specialized facilities.
Proper battery recycling starts with identifying the type of battery and using designated drop-off locations or programs provided by retailers, manufacturers, or local governments. By recycling batteries responsibly, we can minimize environmental risks and conserve valuable materials.
