WHY LEAD RECYCLING…WHY LEAD RECYCLING…

?? Secondary Production of Lead (Recycling) from Scrap results in less

Solid Wastes, uses less energy & reduces the consumption of

minerals resources compared to the Lead Production from Ores.

Lead Battery Scrap is a Hazardous

waste and unsafe disposal creates

Environmental / Health problems.

Careful Recycling is essential,

beneficial & cost effective in

comparison to its safe disposal cost.

BATTERY RECYCLING CYCLE…BATTERY RECYCLING CYCLE…

Lead is the 5th most widely used Metal on earth

Lead has highest rate of recycling among all Ferrous & Non-Ferrous Metals

Lead is only metal on earth which retains its 100% Chemical & Physical properties, irrespective of any number of recycling

Worldwide production of secondary Lead has increased substantially in the past decade.

ENVIRONMENT…ENVIRONMENT…

Most critical part of ‘Lead Recycling Operation’ is of Air Pollution Control

Lead Recycling Plants should be specifically designed to meet specific

norms of particular country’s guide-line

All Environmental Standards, Which has serious concern in Lead Smelting Operations are:

Ambient Air Standard Stack Emission Standard Effluent Discharge Standard Solid Waste Disposal Limits Noise Levels Occupational Exposure of work force
