White garbage What is the harm of waste batteries to the environment?

Hazards of waste batteries: Mercury in batteries discarded in nature will slowly spill out of batteries, enter the soil or water source, and then enter the human body through crops, damaging human kidneys. Under the action of microorganisms, inorganic mercury can be converted into methylmercury, which gathers in the body of fish, and after people eat this fish, methylmercury will enter human brain cells, causing serious damage to the human nervous system, and the serious ones will go crazy and die.

The famous Japanese Minamata disease is caused by methylmercury. Cadmium exudates and pollutes land and water, and eventually enters the human body to damage the liver and kidneys, and can also cause bone weakness, and in severe cases, bone deformation. 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.

**Waste batteries: The popularity and variety of household appliances have led to a dramatic increase in the use of batteries. Waste batteries are mixed in garbage, which not only pollutes the environment, but is also a waste.

The annual consumption of batteries in the country is 3 billion, and 740 tons of copper, 10,000 tons of zinc and 10,000 tons of manganese powder are lost due to the lack of **. We should separate the used batteries from other garbage and send them to **. Many countries attach great importance to the use of used batteries.

Many stores in Germany require customers to return the used batteries to the store when they buy them; Japan's proprietary sorting bins collect different waste batteries.

Hazards of Waste Batteries: When the chemicals inside the battery are completely reactive, the battery can no longer be powered and becomes a waste battery, which is usually thrown away and bought with a new one. Most people would say that this is quite normal.

But they didn't expect that even with that gesture, they were also destroying their home, the earth. One might ask, "What's so great about this little thing for the earth!"

What else is there to say about sabotage? "Batteries don't look that destructive, but you can't look at everything on the surface. 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, once people eat the crops produced by 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! It has been measured that a No. 1 battery rotting in the soil can make one square meter of land lose its use value; A single button battery can contaminate 600,000 litres of water, which is equivalent to the amount of water a person drinks in a lifetime. Nearly 5 billion people in the world to count each person to lose a battery 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 mercury into the natural environment has reached tons, this number can not help but headaches.

Therefore, used batteries cannot be discarded at will. In terms of waste batteries, all countries attach great importance to them. In addition, all kinds of zinc-manganese batteries produced in developed countries are mercury-free batteries.

Developed countries are also not allowed to import mercury-containing batteries. Therefore, China's mercury-containing batteries cannot enter the developed regions of Europe and the United States.

Long-term drinking will cause cancer, pollute the land, and pollute the groundwater source, of which mercury is a heavy metal, and the pollution of waste batteries is more serious, and the white garbage will pollute the soil because it cannot be degraded, so that the heavy metal content of groundwater exceeds the standard.

White garbage will pollute the soil because it cannot be degraded, and the pollution of waste batteries is more serious, among which mercury is a heavy metal, which will pollute the groundwater source, pollute the land, make the groundwater heavy metal content exceed the standard, and long-term drinking will cause cancer!

Destruction of soil and water resources. If it is broken, it needs to be improved for many years. I hope that protecting the environment starts with you and me.

First of all, if the battery is discarded in the soil, the heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and cadmium in it will contaminate the soil, and the rotten battery will also contaminate the nearby water source. 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 can pollute 600,000 liters of water.

Batteries are garbage.

Because the waste battery can not continue to be used, but there are still a large number of chemicals in the waste battery will cause damage to human beings and even the earth, so the battery must not be littered after the battery is used up, which will bring harm to the environment, the battery as the first garbage, mainly because the waste battery is harmful, and the waste battery can be collected for centralized scientific treatment. It is best to use a good battery in daily life, because a poor quality battery has a short service life, which will cause a lot of waste battery pollution. (For reference only, the specific classification requirements are subject to the territorial management department).

Waste batteries are available! Lithium battery plastic copper and aluminum are all good, and have a certain value, some good industry, will be broken to the battery to do sorting, the use of color sorter, eddy current separator, silica gel machine and so on to show its value, so that the battery recycling rate to improve, is very valuable, reduce the waste of resources, but also protect the environment. (Take lithium batteries as an example, I hope it can help everyone!)

Used batteries are hazardous waste. Waste batteries belong to chemical waste, because waste batteries are thrown in the soil, it will undergo a chemical reaction, produce harmful substances to pollute the soil, and then plants can not grow, the chemical reaction that occurs is extremely harmful, so waste batteries can not be fixed casually, so it can also protect the environment.

Garbage is a waste product that has lost its use value and cannot be used, and it is an important part of the material cycle. Solid, fluid substances that are not needed or used. In densely populated large cities, garbage disposal is a headache.

It is common practice to collect them and send them to landfills for landfilling, or to incinerate them in incinerators. However, both create environmental problems, and ending overconsumption can further reduce landfill saturation. Landfill disposal not only pollutes groundwater and odors, but many cities have less and less land available for landfill.

Incineration inevitably produces toxic gases that can harm living organisms. Most cities are looking at ways to reduce waste generation and encourage resources**.

Waste battery hazards:

Scientific studies have shown that a button battery can pollute 600,000 liters of water after being discarded into nature, which is equivalent to the water consumption of a person's 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.

Waste battery disposal method:

There are roughly three ways to dispose of waste batteries in the world: solidification and deep burial, storage in waste mines, and utilization.

1. Solidify and bury deep and store in abandoned mines.

For example, a factory in France extracts nickel and cadmium from it, which is then used to make steel, and cadmium is reused to produce batteries. The rest of the waste batteries are generally sent to specialized toxic and hazardous landfills, but this is not only too expensive but also wasteful, because there are still many useful substances that can be used as raw materials.

2 **Utilization.

1) Heat treatment (2) "Wet treatment" (3) Vacuum heat treatment method.

1. Batteries are hazardous waste.

2. Hazardous waste refers to the sporadic waste of Li Wang that causes direct or potential harm to human health or the natural environment, except for the centralized production of units. It mainly includes waste batteries, waste lamps, waste drugs, waste paint buckets, etc. It refers to sporadic wastes that cause direct or potential harm to human health or the natural environment, except for those generated by units.

3. Delivery requirements:

1) Please be careful when placing rechargeable batteries, button batteries, and accumulators.

2) If there is any residue of paint bucket and insecticide, please close it and put it in.

3) Fluorescent lamps and energy-saving lamps are easy to break, please pack or wrap them with care.

4) Waste drugs and their packaging are put together with packaging.

The biggest hazard of waste batteries is that there are a lot of heavy metals and corrosive chemicals in them, which have a destructive effect on water and soil, thus affecting the plants in the soil and the people who drink water. Now it is basically a classification of ** batteries, collective scientific treatment, reduce hazards, remember not to litter!
