Basics

  • This page goes over the Recyclability of various Battery Chemistries, what the recycling process entails, and how this applies to OSE's efforts

Battery Chemistries

Alkaline Batteries / Zinc–Carbon Batteries

Lead Acid Batteries

Lead acid batteries - 97% of them are recycled and they appear to be more environmentally and socially friendly that lithium ion batteries.
