Lead batteries (code 16 06 01*) contain lead and sulfuric acid, both highly toxic to the environment.
Proper hazardous waste management minimizes contamination and safety risks.
Key hazards include:
- release of toxic vapors when damaged;
- acid leakage into soil and water;
- lead poisoning risk;
- potential ignition under heat.
Effective handling of hazardous waste requires sealing, labeling, and certified transport.
Environmental servicing of enterprises ensures monitoring, reporting, and responsible waste flow.
Safe hazardous waste storage uses acid-resistant, sealed containers.
Hazardous waste transportation follows ADR regulations with proper labeling.
Modern hazardous waste processing recovers valuable materials — lead, plastic, and neutralized acid.
A closed-cycle approach promotes sustainability and environmental responsibility.
