Battery recycle containers
product(s)Chemical waste is released everywhere. Items such as oil, inks and solvents do not belong in ordinary waste incineration plants, much less in landfills or sewers. Batteries and accumulators also belong to chemical waste.
Collection of batteries and accumulators
A battery contains all kinds of substances that are bad for nature and the environment. And substances that are actually very valuable. By returning batteries separately, the harmful substances do not end up in the environment and the valuable metals are reused. Handing in empty batteries is therefore convenient and smart.
For the separate collection of the different types of batteries, Engels supplies battery boxes and battery cases to both large collectors and self-employed persons. Engels distinguishes 4 variants: regular and rechargeable alkaline batteries, lithium batteries (eg button cells) and last but not least lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries rechargeable are used in more and more devices. Think of electric bicycles, mobile phones and even cars.
An important aspect to consider when collecting lithium-ion batteries is safety. Lithium-ion batteries can ignite if they are damaged, come into contact with water, or are exposed to excessive heat. These fires can hold on for hours if not properly extinguished. Especially for this purpose we developed a strong bassin which can be filled with water where the battery can lay untill it is fully extinguished.
Pallet boxes for battery collection
Engels also supplies various pallet boxes to collectors throughout Europe for the collection of larger batteries. Because batteries still make money! The collection of batteries must comply with the ADR regulations for the safe transport of hazardous substances by road. That is why our pallet boxes are tested and provided with the UN 2794 mark, which is prescribed by the ADR regulations.
