Global Lead-Acid Battery Scrap Market Definition

Lead-acid battery scrap is waste/used batteries that are either drained, recycled, or directly disposed of after usage. More than 95% of lead-acid battery scrap is recyclable; it can be reused in the production of new lead-acid batteries. Lead Acid Battery Scrap is the most found Lead scrap. Automotive batteries become obsolete after three to five years of use. The tremendous rise in the number of vehicles is likely to produce increased quantities of Lead Battery Scrap in the future. It is punishable to ship lead-acid batteries to overseas destinations for recycling, due to their hazardous nature. Normally, collection centers receive used batteries from consumers and transport them to authorized recycling centers for further processing.

Lead Battery scrap is available in the form of Lead Battery Plates (Rails), Wet Whole Intact Batteries (Rink), and Drained/Dry Whole Intact Lead Batteries (Rains). Rails must be free of non-metallic materials such as plastic or rubber. The material must be dry. Separators may be included. Rinks consist of starting, lighting, and ignition batteries and a big list of other batteries including automotive and marine-type batteries. Rains must be free of any liquid. The cases must be either plastic or rubber and must be complete including caps.

Global Lead-Acid Battery Scrap Market Overview

One of the biggest propellers of growth in the lead-acid battery market is development in the transportation industry. As technology has advanced, energy storage application has moved forward. Thus, the expansion in passenger car demand, commercial vehicle demand, and motorcycle demand is leading to higher demand for these batteries, as profit margins improve. This is also paving way for growth in the global Lead-Acid Battery Scrap Market.

Advancements in the field of minerals and metallurgy have emerged as distinct drivers of demand within the global market. Several channels for availing lead-acid battery scrap have come to the fore in recent times. Furthermore, automobile batteries can also be disposed into lead acid battery scrap. The ready availability of lead-acid battery scrap, and scientists’ ability to recycle it, have given a thrust to market growth. The growing focus of the energy sector on the recycling of electronic scrap has played an integral role in market growth. The total value of this market is set to increase in the years to follow.

The Lead-Acid Battery Scrap Market is estimated to grow at a healthy rate due to its high-recyclable value and multi-purpose applications in industries such as the automotive, electric power industry, and telecom sectors. Whether lead-acid batteries are completely or partially drained, the battery paste is reused to make new batteries, and the metallic components are sent for melting and casting to manufacture products used in various industries, which is creating new opportunities for lead-acid battery scrap dealers and suppliers.

However, factor such as the lack of skilled workforce in the waste collection is hampering the market growth. The high risk of health-related issues and stringent environmental regulations for efficient treatment during the segregation of lead-acid battery scrap are negatively affecting the market growth. Thus, sustainable treatment operations and strategic collaborations with industry players are evolving the growth of the Lead-Acid Battery Scrap Market towards an environmentally safe and profitable future for exponential business growth.
