Int. J. Electrochem. Sci., Vol. 8, 2013 6461 Figure 5. The proportion of different battery types used in electric bicycles in China in 2011 () Lead-acid batteries power more than 95% of all electric vehicles in China (Fig. 5), which have
rate of lead–acid battery exports from China, which declined at a stable rate after 2016. In 2018, the lead–acid battery export volume for China reached 190.23 million, whereas the import volume was only 10.94 million [16, 17]. This high-trade decit is one of the major causes of the relatively low lead-recycling rate in China.
Recycling of lead acid battery provides a path of sustainable development and is a well-established tradition since they were first used. Approximately 100% recycling rates have been achieved in western countries and very high recycling rate have been achieved elsewhere. Nearly 85% of lead is used in battery production and 60% of the …
