Lead Acid Batteries Are Still Irreplaceable.

Lead is the world's most recycled metal, and many companies are engaged in lead-acid battery production and recycling.

Although lithium ion battery has become a hot spot, its market demand is still huge. In fact, there are reports that the world market for lead-acid batteries will reach $63.44 billion by 2028.

According to Vantage Market Research, the growth in 2015 was driven by demand from the automotive and telecommunications industries as demand for renewable energy and energy storage grew.

Automobile is an important application field of lead-acid battery in our country, and its dosage will increase with the increase of automobile demand. Worldwide electric vehicle sales growth will also have an impact.

With the increasing use of lead-acid batteries, there will be a growing demand for lead recovery worldwide. Lead recovery is the highest in the world, and the International Lead and Zinc Research Group says 64.7 percent of the world's lead will be recovered from recycled raw materials by 2021.

The high recovery rate of lead is mainly due to the convenient and economical reuse of lead-acid batteries. In fact, Battery University says 97% of lead-acid batteries in the United States are recyclable.

The idea is to take the discarded battery apart and soak it in water; then the lead in the battery will sink and the plastic will rise to the top. The lead is then melted and poured into the ingot mold. Impurities are removed and lead is sent to the factory as a new battery. Battery acids can also be converted to water and processed and can also be converted to sodium sulfate for use in washing, glass and textile production.
