Shanghai regulate the flow of waste lead-acid batteries
Large quantity of waste lead-acid batteries drain, waste treatment and professional risk to be material production line downtime predicament, this year is expected to turn for the better. Reporter learned yesterday from relevant meetings, as Shanghai is the only one specializing in lead-waste recycling companies Apple Battery, the Shanghai non-ferrous smelter has recently flywheel 80 with the city electric vehicle production and sales of enterprise contract, it will lead them in the hands of scrap the implementation of directional acid batteries recycling, utilization is expected to be recovered from the original 0.5% to 30%.
According to statistics, in 2006, Shanghai Electric bike sales reached 1.34 million, social holdings of 200 million vehicles produced each year, waste lead-acid battery 2 million tons. At present, lead-acid batteries have been included in the national list of hazardous wastes, of which acid, lead will seriously pollute the environment.
Surge in the amount of lead-acid battery scrap, lead waste in recycling non-ferrous smelter in Shanghai flywheel but not be happy. As the plant from the city electric vehicle production and sales enterprise recycled 102.7 tons of waste lead-acid A1008, A1012 batteries is only a large number of lead-acid batteries were sold to the “road guerrillas,” they generally use indigenous methods lead smelting production of regenerated lead, behind The process will produce a large number of wastewater sludge on the environment caused by “secondary pollution.”
In order to promote the regular city recycling of waste lead-acid batteries, flywheel Shanghai this year, a substantial increase in non-ferrous smelter in the purchase price of waste lead-acid batteries. To a group of 36-volt lead-acid batteries, for example, is priced at 95.91 yuan acquisition of the flywheel, which is “guerrillas” 106 yuan purchase price compared to already have some competitive edge, during the year and strive to achieve 30% of the city of waste lead-acid batteries legitimate recycling. Experts point out that the recovery rate of 95% in developed countries compared to the work of the city of waste lead-acid battery recycling is still a substantial increase in the short term is also difficult. This is mainly because the lead-acid batteries have already been included in the national list of hazardous wastes, but the city did not implement a mandatory recycling of waste lead-acid batteries.
Help environmentally friendly hydrogen-powered fuel-cell bicycle is expected by the end of A1022, A1039 Sheung
Hydrogen-powered bike sounds like the future of science and technology, but this bike at the end of this year will be in Canada or China may Sheung.
Horizon Fuel Cell Technology, Inc. founder Taras Wankewycz said that they have developed a bike, its power comes from hydrogen fuel cells, rather than ordinary rechargeable batteries. The company is currently working with officials in the negotiations between China and the Government of Canada to win the new bike coming year, Sheung.
Wankewycz said: “China has 10 million electric bikes a year to sell, the use of lead-acid batteries may be abandoned at any time.”
Horizon is also developing hydrogen-powered fishing boats, miniature cars, golf cars and toys.
At present, the hydrogen battery technology, there are still some problems to be resolved. First, the hydrogen production is more expensive, the production of hydrogen to create large quantities of carbon dioxide greenhouse gases. Although the chemical reaction or solar power can produce clean hydrogen, but their costs are very high. In addition, the hydrogen battery charging solar cell efficiency is not high.
Nevertheless, the hydrogen battery or the A1057, A1060 battery does not have other advantages: environmental protection; filling gas cylinders only takes a few minutes, while other electric vehicles to spend a few hours of charging.
Currently, fuel cell and hydrogen storage systems costly. Such as fuel prices of bicycles around 1000 U.S. dollars, of which the cost of power systems accounted for 600 dollars. In China, a lead-acid battery-powered electric bicycle prices generally 200 U.S. dollars. Therefore, the beginning of the new electric bike can only be sold to the bike rental companies and other corporate clients.
The high price of making a new bike could not be with the general bike in the same breath, but the government regulations would make the new bike may be universal. Some cities in China and India have banned diesel two-wheelers Sheung.
Japanese organizations to develop Li-ion A1061, A1078 battery safety standard
Sony battery recall learning from the lessons of the incident, the Japanese industry associations recently issued a new guidelines focus on the need to avoid high-voltage charge.
In the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA) and the Battery Association of Japan (BAJ) jointly issued the document, from the battery cell, battery pack design to security, and many are determined by law.
File that is too high and battery charge voltage of impurities within the core will lead to the battery overheating issue, so to avoid exceeding the battery manufacturer specified charging voltage is also very important, companies should also strive to protect the battery itself, the “purity.”
JEITA is currently only released a summary of the A1079 new specification, the details will be announced at a later date.
