Wholesale Laptop Batteries: Ideal For Efficient Corporate Purchasing
May 12, 2025People’s daily life is almost a day without batteries, battery replacement has become one of the common maintenance services. Waste battery pollution and disposal has become one of the environmental issues that society is most concerned about. But do you know that a discarded laptop battery may pollute the environment for decades?
Prevent environmental pollution
Waste batteries contain heavy metals and harmful chemicals, such as nickel, cobalt, lithium, etc., which may pollute the soil and water when casually discarded.
Resources can be reused
Some of the rare metals and other materials in lithium batteries can be recycled and reused to produce new batteries or other products, which not only reduces the mining of new materials, but also saves resources.
Environmental protection
Laptop batteries contain heavy metals and harmful chemicals, which can pollute the soil and water if they are discarded randomly. By recycling, the impact of these harmful substances on the environment can be effectively reduced.
Preventing pollution and heavy metal poisoning
Proper disposal of discarded laptop batteries can prevent the harmful substances they contain, such as cadmium and lead, from seeping into the environment and affecting human health.
Promote sustainable development
Through battery recycling, it can reduce the burden of discarded batteries on the environment and promote the sustainable use of resources.
Common hazardous substances in batteries and their hazards
- Mercury (Hg): Can cause loose teeth, hair loss, hand tremors, and nervous disorders.
- Cadmium (Cd): chronic poisoning manifested as pulmonary edema, kidney disease and bone damage, severe muscle and joint pain.
- Lead (Pb): triggers headaches, insomnia, fatigue, irritability, anemia, and nervous system disorders.
- Nickel (Ni) and nickel salts: may cause skin eczema, intense itching, dizziness, vomiting, and breathing difficulties.
- Zinc, copper and other metals: excessive intake will likewise interfere with the body’s normal metabolism.
Common types of used batteries and their recycling value
Dry Battery (Carbon / Alkaline)
Most of the dry batteries on the market today have banned the use of mercury, but they still contain reusable metals such as steel, zinc and copper, so it is recommended that they be uniformly deposited at specialized recycling points.
Nickel batteries (Ni-Cd, Ni-MH)
These batteries contain toxic nickel and cadmium and are mostly found in old power tools, electric shavers, etc. They should be put into public recycling sites. Iron, nickel, zinc, cadmium and other resources can be recovered after treatment.
Lithium-ion batteries
Mainly used in cell phones, laptops, digital devices, although environmentally friendly, but high recycling value. Its positive and negative electrode materials and electrolyte can be reused, so it is recommended to send them to electronic product recycling stations.
Lead-acid batteries
Widely used in electric cars, battery cars, etc., it is a type of battery with the highest recycling rate. Containing a large amount of lead, sulfuric acid and plastic, they are very likely to cause serious pollution and safety hazards if discarded randomly.
How to use the battery correctly to prolong its life?
Control the time: High performance operation will keep the battery in a constant state of high temperature, which will do the most harm.
Reasonable charging: Keep the battery in the 30%-80% range, don’t use it until you turn off the phone and then charge it.
Use original charger: Avoid the risk of unstable voltage and battery expansion brought by non-original devices.
Adjust system settings: Reduce power consumption by lowering screen brightness and turning off high performance mode.
Regularly calibrate the battery: Perform a full charge and discharge every 2-3 months to keep the battery level display accurate.
