Litter next year to send your battery carefully tickets

Reporters yesterday that, “Sichuan Province of hazardous waste pollution prevention approach,” the official introduction of a few days ago and will be on January 1 next year the implementation of, the public or flats for sale and indiscriminate dumping of hazardous wastes will be subject to severe penalties, resulting in strict

- Most people do not know the investigation of hazardous waste

Chengdong reporters yesterday in a residential district in Chengdu were investigated. In the area of the ground floor of the corner is more than 200 households in a transit point for garbage, garbage bags of various colors, containing all kinds of garbage, piled up together Chengshan. In these garbage in people’s daily life can be seen everywhere in the commonly used batteries, lamp.

Reporter interviewed a number of residents, most people are familiar with hazardous waste, do not know what is around hazardous waste, hazardous waste recycling sites together with the sound, then the public of hazardous wastes into trash bags, fling is over. The results of a large number of hazardous wastes and mixed solid waste, environmental pollution has become a hidden danger.

Recycle Bin just to make money, regardless of pollution

In urban Chengdu, many used to hide the Recycle Bin. Qinglong field in the vicinity of, a number of recycling of waste electrical appliances shop business is booming. Due to electrical appliances in the waste contains large quantities of recyclable non-ferrous metals, ferrous metals, plastics, glass, and some parts are still useful in terms of their broad prospects for future recycling. Refuse collection of used electrical appliances hawkers went ahead with the dismantling or burning of the home appliances containing gold, silver, copper, tin, chromium, platinum, palladium and other precious metals, “down” out of the remaining waste to throw away, a serious pollution the environment. A hawker said that they want useful waste, of course, not only with the throwing, “which control what pollution Oh!”

But, in fact, in the electrical circuit boards, fused, such as the “possession” has harmful chemical raw materials, etc. In case of high temperature will produce harmful substances; there are other non-degradable, such as broken shells and tubes, screen such as garbage, such as the soil will be buried in the underground water pollution.

High cost and difficult handling systems business to run

At present, some large enterprises in the handling of dangerous waste, a large number of “jerry-building” phenomenon. A business person in charge told reporters that the process of their production volume of the plating bath is very large, if the charges dealt with in accordance with the current month to spend tens of thousands of dollars. Although the companies have their own simple processing equipment, but the handling capacity of less than 1 / 5. The remaining liquid waste emissions only quietly. He bluntly, many polluting enterprises to establish their own system of dealing with pollutants, really very little running.

Interpretation - set up hazardous waste identification

To be implemented next month “measures,” the provisions of the next hazardous waste containers and packaging, as well as the collection of storage and transportation of hazardous waste disposal facilities, premises, means of transport must be in accordance with relevant state regulations, set up hazardous waste identification. Prevention and treatment of hazardous waste facilities, premises, shall not be disabled, idle or even shut down, removed; to engage in collection, storage, disposal of hazardous waste operations of the unit, should have to adapt their business activities in technology, premises, equipment and pollution prevention and control capacity , and in accordance with the relevant provisions of the license. Prohibiting the operation permit, or not in accordance with licensing requirements, super scope, super-elements involved in the collection of hazardous wastes and other activities. Prohibited hazardous waste units will be commissioned to provide or pollutants to the land shortage of undocumented Carpenter, recycle bin for waste collection, disposal and so on. Engaged in the collection of hazardous waste management activities such as staff access the system to be implemented.

Hazardous waste a maximum fine of 30,000

“Measures” indiscriminate dumping of the collection, storage, disposal, possession of, hazardous waste, such as damage to the conduct of the detailed requirements. The maximum fine for violations of up to 30,000 yuan. At the same time, in accordance with the provisions of national law, in violation of explosive, flammable, radioactive, toxic, corrosive materials regulations in the production, storage, transport, use of a major accident, causing serious consequences will be sentenced in accordance with the law.

Waste battery recycling there are three major errors

Waste battery recycling there are three major errors

Trackback: http://www.best-laptop-battery.co.uk/

Batteries harmful to the environment have been well-known to the general public. In recent years, many schools in our city, community and business began to take part in prevention and treatment of waste batteries to the list of pollution, and even the kindergarten children also participated in recycling used batteries. However, recently the State Environmental Protection Administration of the control and other relevant departments jointly issued the “Waste Battery pollution control technology policy”, the city used batteries in recycling there are three “errors” has come a long “detour . ”

One need not recall errors in the recovery

No recovery: mercury-free batteries, and low mercury button cell battery

Focus on recycling: nickel cadmium batteries, nickel hydrogen batteries, lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries such as rechargeable battery waste

Not long ago, Haishu District in a primary recovery of used batteries in the box, the reporter found here focus on the various types of batteries: mercury-free batteries, button batteries, as well as low-mercury batteries, and so on. In fact, the majority here simply is no need to waste battery recycling.

Battery of harmful substances including heavy metals and acid, alkali, such as electrolyte solution. Heavy metals including mercury, cadmium, lead, nickel, zinc, mercury, cadmium, lead on the environment and human health against the larger, zinc, nickel in the environment more than a certain amount will also constitute a hazard to human health. Waste acid, waste alkali, such as the electrolyte may be contaminated soil, so soil acidification or alkalization.

Therefore, the state pollution control waste battery technology policy: focus on the collection of waste batteries are nickel-cadmium batteries, nickel hydrogen batteries, lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries can be discarded, such as rechargeable batteries and silver oxide button, such as disposable battery waste. Recovery in the current lack of effective technical conditions, not to encourage countries to focus the collection has reached a low mercury or mercury-free disposable battery waste requirements.

It is understood that the mercury-free batteries, Ningbo, the market has already reached a fairly high level. Various types of batteries in our city’s annual sales total about 17 million, of which the Bank of the battery company’s “Shuanglu” the total battery market accounted for around 70%. At present, the Bank has the full realization of the battery cell production of mercury-free. And so is estimated that the city of mercury-free battery sales ratio was 80%. In other words, the majority of Ningbo production do not waste battery recycling.

Misunderstanding of the second burning of the landfill recovery

Against: the burning of cadmium, mercury, lead batteries can cause serious air pollution

Found in the visiting reporter, at present, the city spent a lot of the battery into the municipal solid waste mixed with the solid waste landfill or incineration.

Scrap metal batteries mercury, cadmium, arsenic and zinc in the incineration volatile, burning into the latter part of bottom ash, and some were taken away by flue gas, condensation of cold air to become homogeneous when small flakes. Metal parts furnace to participate in the reaction of chloride, sulfide or oxide, the metal more easily than the original volatile gasification, and more of these substances into the final remnants of bottom ash to the heavy metal content of ash increased, it is difficult to deal with. Therefore, the incineration of cadmium, mercury, lead batteries can cause serious air pollution, the high level of heavy metal enrichment of the ash can also be sources of heavy metals.

Relevant experts believe that mercury-free batteries can be used for landfill treatment, incineration can also be carried out and will not impact on the environment.

City Sanitation Department from information that I urban solid waste production of about 1200 tons, of which 870 tons of burning to Fenglin. At present, Fenglin no way of sorting their refuse for handling solid waste mixed with waste batteries will then burned. Incineration of waste in the cell, there is no lack of recovery and not have to be harmful to the battery recall.

Errors of three network elements are out of line recycling

Question: The city has not collected to form an effective channel for receiving the waste batteries at present nowhere else to go

It had become a focus of public concern. However, the effect doubtful.

At present, members of the public for purely environmental conscious behavior. It can be said that the city has yet to form a well-established channels for the collection of used batteries. Not to mention a number of communities and units has not carried out this work, some schools and even the collection of waste battery collection nobody answered. This reporter recently visited a residential district in also found that the district was in the collection of waste batteries, but there are not a.

Through a telephone interview, the reporter also found that there are currently receiving is not responsible for the environmental protection department of waste batteries. Sanitation sector can not be sorted waste batteries, the battery is currently receiving the waste can not go anywhere. Fenglin enterprises receive only batteries, will be buried in the “cement coffin.” It can be said that public enthusiasm for recycling of waste batteries is almost down the drain.

It was learned that a solid waste batteries, including nickel-cadmium battery waste, waste mercury-containing batteries and waste lead-acid batteries are hazardous waste.

Analysis of relevant experts in order to tackle the pollution problems of waste batteries, government departments must be correct guidance, from each community, schools, enterprises and institutions to start, the separate collection of hazardous waste batteries, and then transported through the sanitation department to Fenglin landfill to deal with seal. The only way to eliminate waste from the environmental pollution caused by batteries.

Domestic R & D of electric vehicles in the battery remaining technical barriers

At present, China’s domestic R & D of electric vehicles are used in most lithium-ion laptop battery , but in addition to BYD battery production, the most mileage and top speed of life is very limited, short-lived, at the same time the security needs to be improved At present, a lot of battery failure rate is much higher than the safety level of one millionth, burning of vehicles and the problem occurs from time to time. These problems make electric cars the field of large-scale involvement of private cars there are many obstacles, this is also the world’s common problems encountered by manufacturers.
A Beijing Institute of Technology experts said the electric car, a very important reason is that the  XPS M140 battery  has not been the industrialization of production, a number of battery or hand-made, a small amount of production, and therefore difficult to ensure quality and unity. At the same time, users have a lot of battery use inappropriate need for more guidance.
Institute of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, an expert said that Latitude D820 battery  life is still not enough mileage, low speed, the use of electric vehicles is very limited. At the same time, although the majority of electric vehicles can be claimed that the family 220V voltage charge, but the actual operation, the power needs of a general full 10 hours or so, so long charging time is not convenient to use, not the reality, to that end, Latitude D620 battery the construction of fast charging infrastructure is necessary.
