What are the dangers of putting waste batteries in the soil?

When an ordinary battery is discarded in nature, it can pollute 600,000 liters of water, which is equivalent to the water consumption of a person in a lifetime, and China consumes 7 billion such batteries every year. It is understood that 96% of the batteries produced in China are zinc-manganese batteries and alkaline manganese batteries, and their main components are manganese, mercury, zinc and other heavy metals.

Whether the waste battery is in the atmosphere or buried deep underground, its heavy metal components will overflow with the leachate, causing groundwater and soil pollution, and will seriously endanger human health over time. In 1998, mercury, cadmium, zinc, lead and chromium were designated as hazardous wastes in the National Hazardous Waste List.

Harmful substances in the battery can make it impossible to grow plants in the soil. It's the same for anyone, if you put an old battery in the water, not only will it pollute the water, but the fish will also die. So you can't litter the battery.

A battery buried in the soil makes 60 liters of water, which is not drinkable.

Mercury pollution, can't grow vegetables, can't use land, can't crops.

A No. 1 battery rotting in the ground can make one square meter of land lose its use value and cause permanent pollution. Among the substances that pose the greatest threat to the natural environment, batteries contain mercury, lead, cadmium and other substances, which are highly toxic and destructive to the central nervous system of the human body.

Mercury has a low volatilization temperature and is a highly toxic heavy metal. In many places, the soil also contains trace amounts of mercury, and the mercury (vapor) released into the air during mercury mining, refining, and processing of mercury-containing products can have a significant impact on the health of operators if the containment measures are not complete.

When mercury from a waste battery spills, if it enters a person's brain cells, the person's nervous system can be severely damaged. Cadmium can damage the liver and kidneys, and in severe cases, deform the bones.

1. The mercury discarded in the battery in nature will slowly overflow from the battery, enter the soil or water source, and then enter the human body through crops, damaging the human kidneys. Inorganic mercury can be converted to methylmercury by microorganisms.

Collected in the body of fish, after a person eats this fish, methylmercury will enter the human brain cells and make the human nervous system.

Severely damaged, the most serious can go crazy and die. The famous Japanese Minamata disease.

It is caused by methylmercury.

2. The leakage of acid and heavy metal lead contained in automobile waste batteries into nature can cause soil and water pollution, and ultimately cause harm to people.

3. Cadmium exudates and pollutes land and water, and eventually enters the human body to damage the liver and kidneys, and will also cause bone softness, and in severe cases, cause bone deformation.

4. A No. 1 battery rots in the soil, which can make one square meter of land lose its use value. A button battery can pollute 600,000 liters of water, which is equivalent to the amount of water a person drinks in a lifetime. According to statistics, only Beijing enters the natural environment every year due to waste batteries.

of mercury reached 29 tons.

Don't say that if the pollution is serious.

The pollution of used batteries is huge, and after a button battery is discarded in nature, it can pollute 600,000 liters of water, which is equivalent to the water consumption of a person's lifetime. And China consumes 7 billion ...... of such batteries every year

Batteries contain mercury, mercury, a liquid metal. Specific gravity, melting point boiling point 357 .

Mercury evaporates at room temperature, and its vapor is colorless, odorless, and seven times heavier than air. Both mercury and its compounds are highly toxic, especially organic compounds of mercury. Fish are poisoned when they live in milliliters of water containing milligrams of mercury; Ingestion of grams of mercury can lead to death.

There is also cadmium in batteries: cadmium is a very toxic heavy metal, and most of its compounds are also toxic. Japan's "pain" that shocked the world was caused by cadmium pollution. ......

Waste batteries are a big killer that endangers our living environment! A small button battery can pollute 600 cubic meters of water, which is equivalent to the amount of water a person drinks in a lifetime; A No. 1 battery rotting in the ground can make one square meter of land lose its use value and cause permanent pollution.

If batteries are discarded in the soil, heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and cadmium can contaminate the soil, and rotten batteries can also contaminate nearby water sources. Severe heavy metal poisoning can occur if people eat food grown on contaminated soil or drink contaminated water. A rotten No. 1 battery, the heavy metals in which can make a square meter of soil incapable of planting, a rotten button battery.

It will pollute 600,000 litres of water.

What are the main types of batteries? There are two main types of batteries, primary batteries and secondary batteries. Primary batteries mainly include ordinary zinc-manganese batteries, alkaline zinc-manganese batteries, and mercury oxide batteries.

Among them, waste mercury oxide batteries are hazardous waste. Secondary batteries are divided into two categories: rechargeable dry batteries and wet batteries. Rechargeable dry batteries mainly include nickel-cadmium batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, lithium batteries, etc., and wet batteries are mainly lead-acid batteries.

Among them, nickel-cadmium batteries and lead-acid batteries (such as batteries used in motor vehicles such as automobiles) contain a large amount of heavy metals such as lead and cadmium, which are hazardous wastes. Therefore, there are three types of batteries that should be managed as hazardous waste after disposal, namely mercury oxide batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries, and lead-acid batteries. The hazards of waste batteriesWaste batteries contain mercury, cadmium, manganese, lead and other heavy metals, when the surface layer of waste batteries is corroded by sun and rain, the heavy metals in it will penetrate into the soil and groundwater, if people eat the crops grown on the polluted land or drink the polluted water, these toxic heavy metals will enter the human body, slowly deposited down, causing a great threat to human health.

When mercury from used batteries spills, if it enters a person's brain cells, the human nervous system can be severely damaged. Cadmium can damage people's liver and kidneys, and some waste batteries also contain acid and heavy metal lead, which can cause soil and water pollution if leaked into nature, and eventually cause harm to people. What should the public do?

First, reduce the amount of battery waste. Specifically, the public should try to use high-energy batteries, and rechargeable batteries can be used instead of disposable batteries, so that the amount of waste batteries will be reduced a lot. In addition, do not buy low-grade, shoddy battery products, these products not only have a short service life, resulting in an increase in the amount of waste batteries, but also their mercury content is difficult to control, not only can not be mercury-free, but even low mercury is difficult to achieve.

Secondly, the cascade utilization of battery electric energy is used to reduce the amount of waste batteries. There are some electrical appliances with relatively large power consumption, such as children's toys, and there is still some residual power after the batteries are discarded, and these batteries can be used in some electrical appliances with low power consumption, and try to use the power in it to the extreme. Third, do not discard waste batteries at will, be sure to throw waste batteries into the corresponding garbage sorting bin.

Common household batteries such as No. 5 and No. 7 have met the national low mercury or mercury-free technical requirements, and can be dispersed with daily life garbage, without centralized unification, but lead batteries and nickel-cadmium batteries such as button batteries and electric vehicle batteries need to be thrown into the garbage can.

Battery. A battery is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy in a cup, trough or other container or composite container that contains an electrolyte solution and metal electrodes to generate an electric current.

With the advancement of science and technology, batteries generally refer to small devices that can generate electrical energy, such as solar cells.

The performance parameters of the battery mainly include electromotive force, capacity, specific energy and resistance, using the battery as energy, you can get a stable voltage, stable current, and long-term stable power supply.

Now some larger cities have begun to classify **, in accordance with the relevant regulations to put in the designated garbage bins.

Polluting the land. Waste batteries contain a large amount of heavy metals such as mercury, cadmium, manganese, lead, etc. When the surface cortex of the waste battery is corroded in the sun and rain, the components in it will penetrate into the soil and groundwater, and once people eat the crops produced by the polluted land or drink the polluted water, these toxic heavy metals will enter the human body and slowly deposit down, causing a great threat to human health.

It has been measured that a No. 1 battery rotting in the soil can make one square meter of land lose its use value, and a button battery can pollute 600,000 liters of water, which is equivalent to a person's lifetime drinking water. Nearly 5 billion people in the world to lose a battery per person every month, a year to accumulate 60 billion batteries, the destructive power to the earth can be said to be great, the consequences of its harm to human health are even more unimaginable, according to statistics, only Beijing every year due to waste batteries and into the natural environment of mercury actually reached tons.

Therefore, used batteries cannot be discarded at will.

A battery is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy in a cup, tank, or other container or composite container that contains an electrolyte solution and metal electrodes to generate an electric current. It has a positive electrode and a negative electrode.

With the advancement of technology, batteries generally refer to small devices that can generate electrical energy. Such as solar cells. The performance parameters of the battery mainly include electromotive force, capacity, specific energy and resistance.

Using the battery as energy, you can get a stable voltage, stable current, long-term stable power supply, little influence from the outside world, and the battery structure is simple, easy to carry, simple and easy to charge and discharge, not affected by the outside climate and temperature, stable and reliable performance, and plays a great role in all aspects of modern social life.

Waste batteries contain a large amount of heavy metals such as mercury, cadmium, manganese, lead, etc. When the waste battery is exposed to the sun and rain, the skin layer on the surface will be corroded, and the harmful components in it will penetrate into the soil and groundwater. Mercury is highly toxic, and lead can cause nervous disorders, nephritis, etc.; Cadmium mainly causes kidney damage as well as bone diseases such as osteoporosis, osteomalacia and fractures.

If a No. 1 battery rots in the ground, it can make 1 square meter of soil permanently lose its use value;
