Battery Recycling
Leading the Way in Circular Economy: Exide's Sustainable Battery Recycling
Sustainable Practices for a Greener Tomorrow
-
Zero Sulphur Oxide Emissions
Our recycling processes are engineered with advanced air pollution treatment systems that prevent the release of sulphur oxides, ensuring clean air and a safer environment.
-
Effluent Treatment Systems
All waste sulphuric acid is neutralized through comprehensive effluent treatment plants (ETPs), ensuring there is no contamination of water bodies or ecosystems.
-
Responsible Waste Disposal
By-products such as slag, gypsum, and lead-bearing residues are carefully handled and disposed of through authorized channels under the supervision of State Pollution Control Boards, preventing any risk of soil or groundwater contamination.
-
Lead and Plastic Recovery
We efficiently recover lead and polypropylene plastic from used batteries. The refined lead is reused in new batteries, while reclaimed plastics are sent for manufacturing battery containers, further reinforcing our commitment to a closed-loop system.
Recycling Makes Sense - For Everyone
Battery recycling isn't just a regulatory responsibility-it makes social, environmental, and economic sense for all stakeholders in the value chain. From manufacturers and dealers to consumers and recyclers, everyone benefits. Recycling conserves natural resources, creates jobs, reduces pollution, and keeps hazardous materials out of the environment-making it a win-win for the planet and the people.
Towards Zero Waste, Maximum Impact
Exide's recycling ecosystem is designed not just to comply with environmental regulations, but to exceed them. Our integrated approach helps reduce landfill waste, conserve natural resources, and lower greenhouse gas emissions. Through our recycling operations, we are not only protecting the planet but also setting a benchmark for sustainability in the energy storage industry.
