Lead-acid batteries contain sulphuric acid and large amounts of lead. The acid is extremely corrosive and is also a good carrier for soluble lead and lead particulate. Lead is a highly toxic metal that produces a range of adverse health effects particularly in young children.
Recycling prevents the emission of lead into the environment and also avoids the energy usage associated with manufacturing lead from virgin resources. Obtaining secondary lead from used lead-acid batteries can be economically attractive, depending upon the market price of lead.
The batteries contain large amounts of lead either as solid metal or lead-oxide powder. An average battery can contain up to 10 kilograms of lead.
All automotive batteries and 95 percent of industrial batteries are lead-acid secondary cells. Lead-acid batteries contain sulphuric acid and large amounts of lead. The acid is extremely corrosive and is also a good carrier for soluble lead and lead particulate.
This metal causes pollution of soil, water, and air on a global scale. Recently, it is expected that the global production of lead has increased due to the high manufacturing of automobiles, and mobile phone batteries. An additional remarkable impact of lead pollution was reported in hunting birds.
The leakage of sulfuric acid was the main environmental risk of lead-acid batteries in the process of production, processing, transportation, use or storage. According to the project scale the sulfuric acid leakage rate was calculated to be 0.190kg/s, and the leakage amount in 10 minutes was about 114kg.
