How to Recycle Lithium-ion Batteries

Due to their price, features, and performance, rechargeable batteries can be found in nearly every electronic device. The first lithium-ion battery came out in the early '80s, but it was not until the 90's when those li-ion batteries became a standard for household and professional electronics. As we previously mentioned, most of our electric vehicles, computers, smartphones, and tablets use lithium-ion batteries. Because of metals, plastics and chemicals, those batteries represent an exponential risk to the environment and human health.

Lithium-Ion Batteries

Batteries power up our computers, electric vehicles, cellphones, and many other devices that are part of our routines. Electric car popularity has been growing fast, and this is great, but it is also essential to stay alert on the tons of batteries that once powered those cars and end up in landfills. Those old batteries mean more than tons of e-waste and pollution because they also leak up toxic gases such as carbon dioxide that could be very dangerous to human health.
