The recycling efficiencies for lead-acid batteries are as follows: in 2021, all EU Member States achieved the target of 65% recycling efficiency for lead-acid batteries and accumulators.
Lead-acid batteries are the most widely and commonly used rechargeable batteries in the automotive and industrial sector. Irrespective of the environmental challenges it poses, lead-acid batteries have remained ahead of its peers because of its cheap cost as compared to the expensive cost of Lithium ion and nickel cadmium batteries.
Inappropriate recycling operations release considerable amounts of lead particles and fumes emitted into the air, deposited onto soil, water bodies and other surfaces, with both environment and human health negative impacts. Lead-acid batteries are the most widely and commonly used rechargeable batteries in the automotive and industrial sector.
The method has been successfully used in industry production. Recycling lead from waste lead-acid batteries has substantial significance in environmental protection and economic growth. Bearing the merits of easy operation and large capacity, pyrometallurgy methods are mostly used for the regeneration of waste lead-acid battery (LABs).
In 2021, all EU Member States reported recycling efficiencies of lead-acid batteries that were well above the target. Five Member States reported a recycling efficiency of more than 90 %, and 13 reported a recycling efficiency in the range between 80 % and 90 %.
