In order to strengthen the management of used battery, the German implementation of the management of waste battery recycling new requirements. Provision requires that consumers will use the end of the dry battery, button battery and other types of battery to the store or recycling waste recycling, waste recycling shops and unconditional acceptance of used battery, and transferred to manufacturers for recycling Lenovo 3000 N500 battery.

It is estimated that worldwide there are 32 billion each year is discarded used battery, only Germany is necessary to consume an average of 10 battery per year, totaling about 30,000 tons, a large number of discarded used battery on the soil damage to the environment are serious. German environmental sector for the new regulations could put an end to throw used battery of the phenomenon, is still not sure, because before, waste recycling and recovery of manufacturers is generally contain cadmium, mercury toxic chemical constituents of cells, and 90% of the ordinary zinc-carbon Lenovo Ideapad Y430 battery and aluminum-magnesium battery are used as a solid waste landfill or incineration.

Wet processing can be avoided sorting areas (because the sorting is a manual operation, will increase the cost). Magdeburg annual processing capacity of this device up to 7500 tons, which means that while the cost is slightly higher than the landfill, but the precious raw materials will not be discarded, it will not pollute the environment.German Duarte’s vacuum heat treatment developed in France but also cheaper, but that first need to sort out the waste battery, nickel-cadmium battery, used battery by heating in a vacuum, in which the rapid evaporation of mercury can be recovered, and then the remaining Lenovo ThinkPad T400 battery (14-inch wide) ingredients ground, using magnets to extract metals iron, and then extract the powder from the remaining nickel and manganese. This process one ton of waste battery costs less than 1500 marks.

According to the German Environment Ministry statistics, Germany’s annual recovery of the toxicity of nickel-cadmium battery with only 1 / 3, and 2 / 3 of the battery used as a municipal solid waste each year of mercury into the environment, about 8 tons, 400 tons of nickel, cadmium 400 t. In general, make the distinction between ordinary consumers in their lives of toxic battery or non-toxic battery and deal with them is difficult, so the new provision requires shops and assume responsibility for waste recycling. Ministry of Environment, a new way of thinking Lenovo IdeaPad Y730 battery is toxic nickel-cadmium battery and mercury battery to implement a deposit system, that consumers buy every cell contains a deposit of 15 marks, when consumers take old battery to change, the price can be deducted from the deposit.

Magdeburg peri-urban areas are being built a “wet processing” devices, where the addition to lead-acid battery, the various types of cells were dissolved in sulfuric acid, and then using ion resin extracted from the solution of various metal objects, using materials obtained in this way pure than the heat treatment method, so a higher price in the market, and the battery contains 95% of the various Lenovo ThinkPad R400 battery (14-inch wide) substances can be extracted.

The past century, the Earth’s ecological environment has been severely damaged, in the natural environment has been seriously polluted. The tolerance of the Earth’s ecological environment has been stretched to the limit Lenovo 3000 Y510 battery, for humans a terrible revenge. In recent years, people’s increasing emphasis on protecting the natural ecological environment, water pollution, air pollution, such as white pollution control to varying degrees, had certain effect, but the pollution of used battery has not aroused sufficient attention. Where in the end spent battery containing hazardous substances that do?

Waste battery is also a great threat to the natural environment. Ruoqiang spent battery mixed with domestic waste landfill, or throw, and then into the fish, crops, it will destroy the living environment of mankind. Exudation of mercury and heavy metals may penetrate the soil, polluting the groundwater. Experts say that the battery rotten in the geography, make 1 square meter of soil permanent loss of use value; a button cell battery allows 600 tons of water pollution, drinking water is equivalent to the amount of Lenovo IdeaPad U330 battery life.

Although it can be used battery collected to focus on, but because the battery has a cycle of pollution, long concealed-shaped characteristics, if a large number of used battery together in one place, be handled properly, there may cause some parts of the secondary pollution. China’s coastal province of some farmers in the recovery of lead in lead-acid battery, because recycling properly, to contain lead and sulfuric acid waste liquid drained, not only resulted in Lenovo L3000 G230 battery lead poisoning, but also of local crops can not grow. Because of this reason, the relevant departments to collect common focus being promoted temporarily used battery.

Waste battery containing mercury, lead, cadmium, nickel and other heavy metals and acid, alkali and other electrolyte solution, the human body and environment in varying degrees of harm. These toxic substances enter the body through various means, long-term savings is difficult to exclude, it will damage a person’s nervous system, hematopoietic Lenovo E42 battery function and bone, interfering with renal function, reproductive function, it could of chronic poisoning, paralysis, and even cancer.

This fuel cell power modules to provide electricity for longer than existing rechargeable battery, more than 3 times longer. Is anticipated that such cells will become an important alternative to disposable battery. It will reduce by half the number of battery used in the U.S. alone, it is equivalent to an annual total savings of more than 20 billion U.S. dollars. The future of its promotion, can greatly reduce the old-fashioned technology, thousands of tons of waste produced annually by the battery, which greatly reduce these harmful waste Lenovo 3000 N200 battery were contaminated metals on the environment and harm the human body.Safer for mankind to live on earth, we should start from self, under the protection of human existence on Earth depends.

At present, the more effective solution is mainly a technical level, is the production of new environmentally friendly battery, gradually replace the existing technology to produce the battery. Green means the battery is not mercury, cadmium and other harmful substances in the environment and human health and the battery. A number of companies today have begun to produce low-mercury battery. Also asked state departments of domestic battery manufacturers learn from experiences of developed countries to gradually reduce the mercury content of battery in 2002, domestic sales of Lenovo 3000 N100 battery to reach low mercury levels of 2006 to reach the level of mercury-free.

However, to make the battery completely do not contain any harmful substances is still pieces of headache thing. Lenovo Ideapad S10e battery Fuel cells as a new, and the most thorough environmental battery, increasingly become the focus of the study one of the rush. Fuel cell is to hydrogen, methanol fuel and air through the electrochemical reaction of the chemical oxygen directly into electrical energy for power generation, the main product is water. Fuel cell power generation efficiency, can be recycled and non-environmental pollution and so on. It can be widely used in space shuttles, electric vehicles, household power supply, portable power supply and communications systems.

Not long ago, the U.S. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory researchers have successfully developed and demonstrated a micro-thin-film fuel cell samples. General collection, if using this fuel cell, using the estimated time will be extended by 300%. This micro fuel cell technology is to a thin-film fuel cell and a number of microfluidic fuel processing components together into a common packaging, using methanol to facilitate storage of liquid fuels.

2 Duracell battery actually cost 13 yuan! This is the 4th morning in the Xicheng a public park Fung commissary shopping experience. Price Bureau was informed that the reporter from the city, attractions canteen prices are market-oriented operation, there is no relevant laws and regulations impose penalty. It is learned that not only the attractions canteen sold high Lenovo ThinkPad T400 battery (14-inch wide) prices, hospitals, stations and other public places also high commodity prices, the public can only “be at their mercy.”

On the 4th morning, Mr Fung holds the camera ready to go to a park taking pictures, but when we got there to open the camera has a digital camera is dead. Walk in the park are not found in several small shop selling batteries, finally finally found one, but two 13 yuan price tag. “The No. 5 Duracell battery, a few days ago I just bought at the Lenovo Ideapad S10e battery supermarket, 10 is only 20 yuan, 13 yuan here, two should price some out of the way.” Forced resignation, Mr. Fung only pays for Lenovo 3000 N100 battery. Mr Fung also told reporters that when he looked at the canteen in the prices of other commodities is equally partial expensive price of a pack of Doublemint gum, 2.5 yuan, a box of mints Holland’s 3 yuan, a bottle of mineral water 3.5 per … … “Almost all supermarkets, the price of two times more, even more than three times.”

Ago, the people of Mr Choi also has to face encounter, but not in spots, but at the hospital. On that day, Mr Choi to the hospital with his son hanging in water, thirsty prepared to buy bottles of mineral water, a strange looking prices are expensive, supermarkets sold 1 yuan, the hospital canteen has sold 2.5 yuan. While expensive, but the thirst, only to buy. It is reported that major hospitals have a small shop, did a lot of convenience to patients, but the high price at times to enable patients to suck down a Liang Qi. Closer to a grocery store owner from the hospital told reporters that come here to buy many of the patients go to the hospital, daily necessities, in the hospital canteen, then really not worth buying, preferring to run out to buy Lenovo 3000 N200 battery, but also save a lot of cost.

Municipal Price Bureau service price at the official said, for such attractions, hospitals and other public places commissary prices, as long as the price tag, no matter how high the price, price departments can not be investigated and punished. So, before people go to these places, we must think there is any need to buy something, you can buy at the supermarket in advance, so that can also reduce some unnecessary battery trouble.
