Lead acid batteries were first established as a performance standard on January 14, 1980. New source performance standards were first proposed in 40 CFR part 60, subpart KK for the Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing source category on this date ( 45 FR 2790 ). The EPA proposed lead emission limits based on fabric filters with 99 percent efficiency for grid casting and lead reclamation operations.
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for the lead acid battery manufacturing industry is 335911. The NAICS code serves as a guide for readers outlining the type of entities that this final action is likely to affect.
The EPA also set GACT standards for the lead acid battery manufacturing source category on July 16, 2007. These standards are codified in 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPPP, and are applicable to existing and new affected facilities.
1. NSPS The EPA has found through the BSER review for this source category that there are 40 existing lead acid battery manufacturing facilities subject to the NSPS for Lead-Acid Battery Manufacturing Plants at 40 CFR part 60, subpart KK.
The ICRs (Integrated Compliance Reporting) for lead acid battery manufacturing are specific to the information collection associated with the Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing source category through the new 40 CFR part 60, subpart KKa and amendments to 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPPP.
This regulatory guide describes methods and procedures that the staff of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) considers acceptable for use in complying with the agency’s regulations with regard to the maintenance, testing, and replacement of vented lead-acid storage batteries in nuclear power plants.

Lead-Acid Batteries: Examples and Uses
The battery is packed in a thick rubber or plastic case to prevent leakage of the corrosive sulfuric acid. The case also helps to protect the battery from damage. Working. When a lead-acid battery is charged, the lead sulfate on the plates is converted back into lead oxide and lead. This process is called "charging." When the battery is ...

BU-403: Charging Lead Acid
Charging beyond the specified limits turns redundant energy into heat and the battery begins to gas. The recommended float voltage of most flooded lead acid batteries is 2.25V to 2.27V/cell. Large stationary batteries at 25°C (77°F) typically float at 2.25V/cell. Manufacturers recommend lowering the float charge when the ambient temperature rises above 29°C (85°F). …
