1. Some repair shops recovery digital camera battery “processing”, the low-cost sales

July 16, reporters with their own electric vehicle batteries scrapped the ground, respectively, to waste recycling companies, individuals who received waste, street repair shops, electric car distribution Inquiry found that this power has been unable to provide a “waste” also able to 50 at prices ranging from 120 yuan to be acquired.

Chang waste received master said they changed hands could be sold to scrap the battery company. Cheng East electric vehicles in opening a repair shop in Mr. Liu said that accumulate to a certain amount of battery recycling, will someone come to collect their own only know that they may be sent to the battery factory. “We are manufacturers do not recall, but consumers can take the old battery to us trade-in.” Giant after-sales service center said that because the kodak klic-5001 battery can not be apart, to return the factory can no longer use, so they had to the recovery of old batteries are sold on the streets of the repair shop. In the ensuing investigation, Arminio and other brands of after-sales service department also said that they used is similar to the approach.

2. Refining recycling, re-made batteries

Navigation Road, electric vehicle market, some operators multiple brands of electric cars is a clear commitment to business, the old battery can be 50 ~ 120 yuan a price recovery. A dealer on condition of anonymity, said the old battery finally went to a small battery factory is used to extract one of the lead, after processing, you can re-made kodak klic-7001 battery. However, according to his understanding, Zhengzhou electric vehicles on the market brand-name manufacturers do not recall the fundamental, the final flows were the same.

3. Refinery refining pure lead

Zhejiang, an electric car manufacturer based in Zhengzhou, agent Song Qiang (a pseudonym), enter the electric car industry for almost eight years, he told reporters yesterday, a number of brand-name electric car battery recycling factory will be, will be one of the extract of lead, and then own re-made a new battery into the market, one of lead kodak klic-7004 battery scrap, generally around 5% can be extracted from pure lead.

In addition to this collection, the Song, claiming there are some small, private refineries, the battery inside using indigenous methods of lead extraction, lead ingots cast after the high-priced resale. It was his understanding that the private refineries are generally located in suburban or rural areas, the use of technology and equipment is relatively backward, but in recent years due to lead prices up, so there is not a small profit. “Some small repair shop, but also that he would waste the battery modification, and then re-sold.” He said that, in addition to refining of lead outside the use of used batteries, another is “melted down reform”, a number of electric car repair shop will be Spent electrolyte inside the kodak cr-v3 battery replaced, the battery can store electricity again, and then sold to consumers low prices. He admits that transformed the battery can not be supported for too long, but due to low prices coupled with some consumers do not understand, they still have a certain market.

Economic benefits and let the policy overhead

In October 2003, the State Environmental Protection Administration, the National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Construction, Science and Technology, Ministry of Commerce promulgated the “Waste Battery Pollution Prevention and Control Technology Policy,” which stipulated, the electric vehicle manufacturers must take responsibility for recycling of waste batteries. But in practice, because of transportation and storage costs of such links as larger expenses, this requirement is almost null and void.

Navigation on the road to a certain brand electric vehicle dealer’s calculations, the battery transportation according to the “dangerous goods” to pay various charges. If the manufacturers send vehicles recycling batteries, nearly 0.4 yuan per catty required to pay the transportation and storage costs, charges at least annually spend hundreds of million yuan.

Large number of unauthorized acts of the prevalence of canon bp-511 recycling of used batteries, it is due to profitable.

Policy in place, regulators are in place

Zhengzhou Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, said a staff member, the battery acid will pollute the environment inside is not in doubt, but because of Zhengzhou City, has yet to introduce relevant policies, regulations, although they have to understand this situation, but also suffer from no “law” may in accordance with “there is no support for the relevant regulations, even if we received a report that the dumping of waste was separated cells, nor punishment, only advice.”

He said pollution of used batteries for electric vehicles of this situation, they also attach great importance, but also specifically to find out about the practice of the field, they also want to related to regulatory policies as soon as possible.

It is understood that Beijing had previously promulgated regulations, by industry and commerce, quality supervision of law enforcement and other agencies to require electric vehicle manufacturers to enter the sony vgp-bpl8a battery market must be committed to the future of the used batteries for recycling, otherwise not allowed to enter the market, through such policies can make the market on the used batteries last a reasonable “way back.”

Beginning in sony vgp-bps8 battery 2004, Zhengzhou market, rapid growth in the number of electric cars, has become an important means of transport people. According to Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Wang Henan electric vehicle introduced in 2004 in Zhengzhou, electric cars years ago, is still relatively small, but in 2005 a sudden increase to 30 million units in 2006 has increased by more than 10000, the current number has now been close to 50 million.

As a power source of electric vehicles, electric vehicle batteries scrapped the number has soared, according to each cell a ~ 2-year life span, then it starting in 2006, an alarming number of batteries discarded each year. “In general, the summer we can recover 15 per month group used batteries, the winter can reach 30 group 40 group.” Giant Center, said after-sales service, only they are a brand, the annual recycling of used batteries in Zhengzhou more than 300 groups.

The reporter has learned that well-known on the sony vgp-bps8a battery market in Zhengzhou electric car brand at least 40, which does not include those brand-name manufacturers. Moreover, the past two years has entered the peak period of electric vehicle batteries discarded every year scrapped a few 100,000 electric vehicle batteries, but so many of the discarded batteries and the places where the final flow, but it is a suspense.

Battery(Sony Battery) shrunk originally “remelt recycling”

July 17, Zhengzhou, Liu riding public electric car to buy food, go out not long after, the electric vehicle battery indicator becomes red, while the speed is also gradually falling down. “End of electric charge to ride two days before, a quick power of the powerless!” Liu was depressed, with original equipment batteries scrapped after the July 7, he was in the Yellow River Road, an electric car repair shop for a new set of batteries, but it took less than 10 days, charge into the electricity found less and less time to charge after the continued use reduced from four days to two days.

Mr. Liu feels wrong to him to find a repair shop replace the battery. Examined Liu in the hands of the receipt when you buy batteries, the staff admitted their piece of the battery, and promised to post-test, if it does not meet their commitment to quality, they gave Mr. Liu replaced. Mr. Liu, the sony vgp-bps8b battery in the quality of questioning, the staff vaguely that some of the battery scrap, you can be re-”reform”, and then sold into the market, this piece of the battery may be the case. As for how to “reform”, they said do not know.

Pollution of the environment, market chaos

At present, the use of electric vehicles on the market are generally lead-acid batteries, which the main component of the electrolyte is sulfuric acid, is highly polluting. A waste battery recycling prices generally 50 yuan to 120 yuan, far from enough of its harmless disposal.

Song Qiang said, private extraction point and the repair shop simply can not afford and can not be properly handled acid batteries are normally direct dumping. A recovery of the battery repair shop owners admit that they are the battery of lead extraction procedure is first to use saws to cut open the shell, acid directly into the sewers, leaving only a shell of lead and, although aware of acid will pollute the , but “there is no other way.”

In addition to pollution, disruption to the consumer sony vgp-bpl8 battery recycling has also created fooled possible. Mr. Liu expressed the anger, no longer believe that a bargain.
