The extracting and manufacturing of copper used in the anode is the highest contributor among the materials. Consequently, for the lead-acid battery, the highest impact comes lead production for the electrode. An important point to note is that there are credits from the end-of-life stage for all batteries, albeit small.
Lead-acid batteries have a significant environmental impact. They contain lead, which is a toxic substance that can harm the environment and human health if not disposed of properly. Lead-acid batteries also require a lot of energy to manufacture, which contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental issues.
The technical challenges facing lead–acid batteries are a consequence of the complex interplay of electrochemical and chemical processes that occur at multiple length scales. Atomic-scale insight into the processes that are taking place at electrodes will provide the path toward increased efficiency, lifetime, and capacity of lead–acid batteries.
Lead-acid batteries are one of the oldest and most widely used types of rechargeable batteries. They are commonly used in vehicles, backup power supplies, and other applications requiring high values of load current. These batteries are made up of lead plates and an electrolyte solution of sulfuric acid and water.
The results show that lead-acid batteries perform worse than LIB in the climate change impact and resource use (fossils, minerals, and metals). Meanwhile, the LIB (specifically the LFP chemistry) have a higher impact on the acidification potential and particulate matter categories. Table 8.
The LIB outperform the lead-acid batteries. Specifically, the NCA battery chemistry has the lowest climate change potential. The main reasons for this are that the LIB has a higher energy density and a longer lifetime, which means that fewer battery cells are required for the same energy demand as lead-acid batteries.
