The materials contained in lead-acid batteries may bring about lots of pollution accidents such as fires, explosions, poisoning and leaks, contaminating environment and damaging ecosystem. The main chemical compositions and contents of spent lead-acid batteries were listed in Table 1.
The REACH-regulation (1907 /2006/EC) describes the setting up and updating of safety data sheets for substances and mixtures. For articles – like lead-acid batteries – safety data sheets are not required. The transfer of a leaflet with “instructions for the safe handling of batteries“ has to be interpreted simply as a product information.
Acts intensely corrosive on skin and mucous membranes. The inhalations of mists may cause damage to the respiratory tract. May cause damage to the blood, nerves, and kidneys when taken in. Lead-containing battery paste is classified as toxic for reproduction. 12. Ecological information
In a vented lead-acid battery, these gases escape the lead-acid battery case and relieve excessive pressure. But when there’s no vent, these gasses build up and concentrate in the lead-acid battery case. Since hydrogen is highly explosive, there’s a fire and explosion risk if it builds up to dangerous levels.
Furthermore all lead-acid batteries have to be marked with a crossed-out wheelie bin and with the chemical symbol for lead Pb shown below. In addition, the ISO- recycling symbol is marked. The manufacturer, respectively the importer of the batteries shall be responsible for the attachment of the symbols.
The environment risk assessment was presented in this paper particularly, the framework of environmental risk assessment on lead-acid batteries was established and methods for analyzing and forecasting the environmental risk of lead-acid batteries were selected.
