Battery recycling standards for used mobile phones must meet environmental standards

"A button battery pollutes the water of a person's life." Once an environmental protection propaganda language spread throughout the national media. So how much pollution would a cell phone battery cause? The pollution intensity of a used cell phone battery is 100 times that of an ordinary dry battery, which can seriously pollute 60,000 liters of water. If the battery is burned, the resulting pollutants can cause thyroid disorders, endocrine disorders, and various diseases such as nerves and immune systems.

The act of recycling used cell phone batteries to prevent them from entering the ecosystem and causing harm to the environment. Used batteries contain a large amount of heavy metals and electrolyte solutions such as waste acid and soda. If discarded at will, corrupt batteries will destroy our water sources and erode the crops and land on which we depend. Our living environment will face a great threat. Therefore, it is necessary to recycle the used batteries after use. One can prevent pollution of the environment and the other can reuse the useful ingredients and save resources.

According to Zhangbao, chief technical officer of mobile phone recycling in Shenzhen Kaiqi Feng Technology Co., Ltd., about 100 million mobile phone batteries are scrapped each year, each weighing about 20g on average. The mobile phone's lithium ion battery has an average of 14.3 % cobalt, 1.4 % lithium, and copper. 17.8 %, aluminum 4.61 %, its utilization value is large. Therefore, its recycling should be paid attention. If the recycling is not properly disposed of, it will bring many problems of sustainability to the society.

China has 500 to 600 million idle mobile phones each year, but the battery recovery rate is less than 2 %. Battery recovery is not yet standard compared to developed countries. Based on the national status of domestic battery recovery and the recovery of the form, it is necessary to establish their own battery recovery standards.

After many years of exploration and innovation, Shenzhen Kaiqi Feng Technology Co. Ltd. has established commercial standards for mobile battery recycling.

One is recycling classification

The current battery recovery of mobile phones is mainly lithium batteries. Generally divided into three categories, miscellaneous batteries, brand batteries, soft batteries. Many recyclers have not been sorted for battery recycling, and some unscrupulous merchants have added iron shells, charging treasures, etc., and even some brand batteries have been doped with batteries. This has seriously disrupted the market and is not easy to classify, which has increased the burden of sorting. The recovered batteries will be sorted again, then sorted and packaged, anti-dye explosion treatment, and finally sent to the decomposition factory for final treatment.

Kaiqifeng technology battery recovery standard:

Miscellaneous batteries: There are iron shells in the battery, walkie-talkies, charging treasures are cheap;

Brand batteries: must be big brands such as Oppo, vivo, Nokia, Apple, pay attention to foreign brand batteries(fake, iron shell without head); Note the battery drum bag, a bag of battery drum bags can not exceed 30 %, not the drum bag accounted for more than 70 % is normal;

Soft Battery: Polymer lithium battery(brand machine only), easy to catch on fire, loading and unloading transport should pay more attention;

Second, safe transportation.

Soft batteries are squeezed during transport and can easily catch fire and cause fire. Kaiqifeng's technology company will generally soak salt in water after packaging and use physical reactions to reduce the risk in transit.

Three is settlement.

After many years of development, the company has been in a leading position in the mobile phone recycling industry and has sufficient cash flow. Settlement is generally based on customer needs for bank transfers, WeChat payments, etc., professional, safe, efficient, and high prices.

Fourth Credit Mechanism

For adulterated recyclers, Kaiqifeng established an internal blacklist system for companies, and reported within the company to prevent micro-development.

Cell phone battery recycling is not only a social issue, but also related to the sustainable development of human beings. Therefore, we call for every citizen to increase the awareness of protecting the environment and protecting resources, and to hand over mobile phone batteries to recyclers for processing.

The scientific recycling of "electronic waste" not only reflects the courage of an enterprise to assume social responsibility, but also produces a scale effect and realizes the transformation of waste into treasure. Returning to the truth, Kaiqifeng has established a public welfare environmental protection fund in cooperation with many parties, implemented a two-wheel drive strategy, and integrated economic and social benefits in an orderly manner.
