Tianjin waste materials recyclingTell you the precautions for discarded batteries

Typing the term "battery toxic" into a search engine yields nearly 4 million related messages。Most of them believe that the toxicity of used batteries is much greater than that of ordinary garbage, and littering batteries will damage the environment。So in real life, we Tianjin citizens also think this way？

According to interviews, almost everyone agrees that batteries are toxic and should be disposed of specially when discarded。So, where does this toxicity come from？

Because heavy metals, unlike other toxins, can pass out of the body after being catabolized by the liver。On the contrary, it is easy to accumulate in the brain, kidneys and other organs。Once exceeded, it is easy to cause gene mutations and affect cell inheritance。In severe cases, it can also produce teratoma or induce cancer。Among these toxic heavy metals, especially mercury, is harmful。According to some scholars, a piece of tribute battery rotting in the ground can make 1 square meter of land completely lose its agricultural use value。In addition, among various batteries, smaller button batteries are seriously harmful。A single button battery can render 600 tons of water undrinkable。How toxic the battery is？Someone has done an experiment: three fish tanks were added to three kinds of waste battery soaked in water。As a result, as soon as they came into contact with the water in the batteries, the fish in the three tanks seemed to be stimulated and swam around as fast as they could, moving much more conspicuously than before。But when the water was calm, only the two fish that had dipped in the button battery water remained excited。The fish in the other two tanks were quiet。The cylinders of dry batteries, in particular, are almost motionless。

Send some battery solution to the lab。Test data showed that mercury levels in the three battery solutions were normal。However, such as rechargeable batteries, rechargeable batteries, etc., heavy metal content may still exceed the standard。In addition, those inexpensive batteries may still be used by manufacturers or the technology is outdated, which will still pollute the environment。Try not to throw away the batteries after you use them。They should be collected and sent to a special waste battery recycling bin。
