EPR and battery waste management

This very important regulation on EPR registration for battery waste management is mandated for all producers and encourages the recycling and safe disposal of batteries, making them liable for the entire battery lifecycle. It is expected to drive optimally designed batteries for easy recycling and efficient infrastructure. Ultimately, it aims to reduce damage to the environment through battery waste.

Batteries for diverse electronic appliances have been experiencing an exponential increase in market demand over the past few years, and so has the generation of battery waste. Batteries become a serious environmental hazard and health risks when they are not disposed of correctly and enter into the wrong hands.

Even lesser quantities of these batteries would challenge the human body with skin irritation, respiratory problems, renal illnesses, and, very rarely, even death due to extreme toxicity.

Urgent need for battery waste management

Digital growth in battery usage –The ever-increasing consumption of electronics, electric vehicles, and renewable energy systems has led to an unprecedented demand for batteries-a parallel surge in the generation of battery waste. Global battery demand estimated at 933 GWh in 2021 is projected to jump to an astounding 5,100 GWh by 2030, thereby underscoring the increasing magnitude of this very challenge.

Dangers of Informal Recycling-It is reported that more than 90% of used Lead Acid Batteries are currently recycled informally. Such operations are unregulated and cause huge leads to pollution as guidelines are not followed in accordance with environmental standards..

Protecting the Environment –These may include lead-acid, cadmium, mercury, or lithium batteries. Improperly disposing of batteries contaminates the soil and water resources by leaching harmful substances into the environment.
Protecting human health –The wrong representation and removal of fertilizers are likely to put human lives at risk by exposing them to poisonous chemical agents that will result in very serious effects on health such as neurological impairment, respiratory distress, kidney failure, and reproductive disorders. Hence proper waste management is fundamental to human health.
