Customer ServiceDespite the EU hazardous waste regulations, the passage of the EU Battery Directive in 2006 requires the special management of all types of battery waste regardless of their hazardous waste status. The EU Battery Directive aims to prohibit the disposal and incineration of all types of batteries, including LIBs.
Although the Basel convention has classified only batteries containing cadmium, lead, and mercury as hazardous waste (Kuchhal & Sharma 2019), alkaline battery waste containing zinc and manganese can cause these metals to leak into the environment.
For batteries, a number of pollutive agents has been already identified on consolidated manufacturing trends, including lead, cadmium, lithium, and other heavy metals. Moreover, the emerging materials used in battery assembly may pose new concerns on environmental safety as the reports on their toxic effects remain ambiguous.
Nevertheless, the leakage of emerging materials used in battery manufacture is still not thoroughly studied, and the elucidation of pollutive effects in environmental elements such as soil, groundwater, and atmosphere are an ongoing topic of interest for research.
