Used batteries refer to batteries that have been used but cannot meet basic functions. They mainly include used disposable dry batteries, rechargeable batteries for electronic products, energy storage batteries and vehicle power batteries.Waste batteries contain heavy metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium and cobalt. If they cannot be recovered or are not properly disposed of after recycling, they will have a great negative impact on the environment.In addition, most of the heavy metals in the used batteries have high value and great market potential.
According to the 2020-2025 China Waste Battery Industry Market Research Report released by Xinsi Industrial Research Center, the waste battery recycling industry has a large scale of upstream raw materials. In 2019, the waste battery recycling scale reached 139,000 tons.However, at present, some used batteries are still not handled in a standard way, causing serious pollution and disturbing the market order. In addition, some raw materials needed for batteries are highly dependent on imports. The recycling of used batteries is also of great significance for ensuring the supply chain security of the battery industry, which is strongly supported by the government in the policy field and has a great market potential.
In December 2016, the ministry of environmental protection to make the lead battery production and pollution prevention technology policy ", the revised "waste battery pollution control technology policy", the emerging of lithium batteries, solar cells and fuel cells into recycling, encourage the establishment of "Internet of things" propaganda of environmental protection and social supervision system, and effectively improve the technology of waste battery environment management system, pollution prevention, guide the industry green low carbon development cycles.
In 2018, various provincial governments in China issued policies on waste battery recycling to severely crack down on illegal recycling and smelting of waste batteries.In November, the Environmental Protection Department of Henan Province and other five departments jointly issued the pilot Program for the Collection and Treatment system of Waste Lead batteries in Henan Province, and carried out pilot work in anyang, Xinxiang, Jiaozuo and Xuchang.Shandong issued the Technical Specification for the Prevention and Control of Life Cycle Pollution of lead-acid batteries, and put forward the technical requirements for the prevention and control of pollution during the sale and use of lead-acid batteries.Guangdong, Shaanxi and other provinces have also issued a series of policies to punish the illegal production, illegal recycling, illegal distribution, illegal dismantling and smelting of used batteries.
Released in April 2020, the standing committee of the National People's Congress of the People's Republic of China on the prevention and control of environmental pollution by solid waste, building electric and electronic lead-acid batteries, such as vehicle power battery type battery producer responsibility system, engaged in the collection, storage, utilization and disposal of hazardous waste must apply for permits, promote the recycling of waste batteries threshold, strengthen key battery production enterprises to establish a complete system of resource recovery, reduce some bad manufacturer will be used at a low price used batteries as new battery sales market health behavior.
Xinsi research analysts believe that the scale of waste battery recycling will maintain a high growth trend in the situation that new energy vehicle batteries gradually enter the waste recycling period and the domestic waste battery recycling rate keeps improving. The market potential is large, and there is a great investment potential in waste battery recycling channels, processing technology and other aspects.
