¡¡¡¡All the rechargeable batteries from our company have been fully discharged before the transportation in order to clear out the accidental short circuit and ensure the transportation security. You can consult the¡¶Special Provision A45 of the International Air Transport Association Dangerous Goods Regulations¡· to find the rules related to battery transportation.
- Battery callback and rebuild
¡¡¡¡There are a lot of cobalt, nickel, lithium, manganese, iron, lead, cadmium, mercury, acid, alkali and organic compound in various abandoned batteries. Some of them have a high recycling value, The discarded batteries could lead to waste and environmental pollution. In recent years, battery¡¯s recycling has been put in spotlight by the international environmental protect organizations. For more details, consult the following website:
