Where the battery is damaged, it can overheat and catch fire without warning. Batteries should be checked regularly for any signs of damage and any damaged batteries should not be used. The incorrect disposal of batteries – for example, in household waste – can lead to batteries being punctured or crushed.
This paper considers some of the issues of safety over the life cycle of batteries, including: the End of Life disposal of batteries, their potential reuse in a second-life application (e.g. in Battery Energy Storage Systems), recycling and unscheduled End of Life (i.e. accidents).
But when the battery comes to the end of its life, its green benefits fade. If it ends up in a landfill, its cells can release problematic toxins, including heavy metals. And recycling the battery can be a hazardous business, warns materials scientist Dana Thompson of the University of Leicester.
Battery power has been around for a long time. The risks inherent in the production, storage, use and disposal of batteries are not new. However, the way we use batteries is rapidly evolving, which brings these risks into sharp focus.
These lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries offer a zero-emissions transportation solution, but they don’t last forever. So, what happens to them once they’ve reached the end of their life? Improper disposal of end-of-life EV batteries lands them in landfills and, unsurprisingly, comes with negative environmental implications.
Improper disposal of end-of-life EV batteries lands them in landfills and, unsurprisingly, comes with negative environmental implications. When Cummins first began investing in electrification, EV waste-management was a key issue we wanted, and needed, to solve. What is an end-of-life battery?
