Industry Insight
❖The consumer & electronic appliance batteries include chemistries such as lithium primary,
alkaline manganese, zinc carbon, zinc air button cells, and silver oxide button cells.
❖They are specifically used in laptops, cell phones, power tools, remote controls, video game
systems, toy cars, and all other devices that require energy without a cord.
❖Most of the consumer & electronic appliance batteries get recycled in Europe and North America
regions, and the collection rate is influenced by the lifespan of the batteries, which can range
from one to three years.
❖As part of the commitment to reduce the environmental impact in Europe and North America,
customers are encouraged to return their used portable batteries to any battery collection sites
for recycling.
❖These batteries contain toxic chemicals, such as lead, mercury, or cadmium.
❖If the spent batteries are disposed of in waste bins, they are likely to end up in a landfill, where
they start to break down and can leak some of the chemicals into the ground. This can cause soil
and water pollution, which may lead to health risks
