In China, the world''s largest producer and consumer of lead-acid batteries (LABs), more than 3.6 million tons of waste lead-acid batteries (WLABs) are generated every year, yet only 30% of them can be recycled in a well-regulated manner, while the remaining 70% are recycled through informal channels, resulting in serious waste of …
The incorporation of lead into most consumer items such as gasoline, paints, and welding materials is generally prohibited. However, lead–acid batteries (LABs) have become popular and have emerged as a major area where lead is utilized. Appropriate recycling technologies and the safe disposal of LABs (which contain approximately 65% …

This range is much wider than those for lead-acid batteries and for Ni-Cd batteries. In 2012, 18 of 22 Member States reported recycling efficiencies above the 50 % target. Data for both 2021 and 2012 are available for 21 Member States.
The lead-acid battery fee is imposed on dealers making retail sales of new and remanufactured lead-acid batteries, including those sold to governmental entities or tax-exempt entities. The $1.50 fee applies to the sale of each new or remanufactured battery designed for use in motor vehicles (on-road or off-road), vessels, or aircraft.
