Results for tag: "Lead Acid Battery Scrap"

The Lead Acid Battery Scrap market is interlinked with the automotive industry, largely due to the prevalent use of lead-acid batteries in vehicles for starting, lighting, and ignition (SLI) purposes. When these batteries reach the end of their life, they become a source of secondary lead upon recycling. The scrapping and recycling of lead-acid batteries involve the recovery of materials such as lead, plastic, and sulfuric acid. These materials are then reused to produce new batteries or for other applications, contributing to a closed-loop economy. The market for battery scrap is driven by the demand for recycled materials, environmental regulations, and the need to manage the disposal of hazardous waste responsibly. Lead-acid battery manufacturers often participate in take-back programs to facilitate recycling, and the automotive industry also works with scrap dealers and recycling centers to ensure proper end-of-life management of these batteries. Several companies operate within the Lead Acid Battery Scrap market, specializing in collection, recycling, and the distribution of recovered materials. Prominent players include Johnson Controls, Exide Technologies, and EnerSys. These companies are complemented by a network of battery recycling centers and scrap processors such as G&P Batteries, Umicore, and RSR Corporation, which provide essential services in the recycling ecosystem.
