What is a lead-acid battery? The Future of the Lead-Acid Battery Recycling Market


The lead-acid battery was invented by the Frenchman Plante in 1859 and has a history of more than 160 years. Lead-acid battery (VRLA) is a battery whose electrodes are mainly made of lead and its oxides, and the electrolyte is a sulfuric acid solution. In the discharge state of the lead-acid battery, the main component of the positive electrode is lead dioxide, and the main component of the negative electrode is lead; in the charging state, the main component of the positive and negative electrodes is lead sulfate. In order to have a deeper understanding of lead-acid batteries, let us understand the common products related to lead-acid batteries around us. At present, lead-acid batteries are widely used in automobiles, trains, tractors, motorcycles, electric vehicles, communications, power stations, and power transmission. , instrumentation, UPS power supply and aircraft, tanks, ships, radar systems and other fields.

According to incomplete statistics, about 198 million lead-acid batteries weighing more than 5 million tons are scrapped every year. Lead storage battery is one of the most widely used chemical power sources in the world with mature technology at present. The advantage is that the electromotive force is relatively stable during discharge, and the disadvantage is that the specific energy (electric energy stored per unit weight) is small and it is highly corrosive to the environment. Lead-acid batteries have stable working voltage, wide range of operating temperature and operating current, can charge and discharge hundreds of cycles, good storage performance (especially suitable for dry charging storage), and low cost, so they are widely used. The wide range of usage has also promoted the unprecedented vitality of the lead-acid battery recycling industry, and the future lead-acid battery recycling market is also promising.

To sum up, the above introduces the birth of lead-acid battery and its structural composition, and also briefly analyzes the future of the lead-acid battery recycling market.
