Lead Battery Scrap

Lead acid battery cutting machine.

It is a rotating wheel type Semi-Automatic Battery Cutting Machine of standard capacity 2 MT/hr. Metal Cutting Steel Blades rotating at high speed fitted on base frame structure. Forward movement of batteries against blade/cutting wheels is facilitated with Belt Conveyor mounted on long base frame. In order to cut different height batteries these two cutting wheels can be moved simultaneously up & down by Manual Or motorized gear screw arrangement.

After cutting the battery, plastic box is emptied manually by separating the Lead bearing material, Terminals, grids & separators etc. Subsequent crushing of Plastic Boxes is done in Plastic crusher and all lead bearing material is fed into charge for further smelting. If the batteries are not drained dry, Sulfuric acid has to be drained out manually before sending it for cutting process.

Breaking System & Separation of Components.

Conveyor type rotor blade Battery Cutting machine is used

Two operators are needed; each at Charging & Discharging End of Battery Cutting Machine.

Operator at the discharge end is provided with two bins on adjacent sides so as to put Lead Bearing material on one

Side by just tilting the Top Cut Batteries & Plastics boxes are placed on different side

No Mixing of different color Plastic batches

Separators do not mix with PP chips

Lead Battery Scrap

Lead acid batteries are made up of plates, Lead, and Lead oxide with a 35% sulfuric acid and 65% water electrolyte solution. Lead acid batteries represent almost 60% of all batteries sold worldwide

Generally there are two types of Lead-acid storage batteries, based on their method of construction Flooded or Sealed. Flooded (or wet) Lead acid batteries are those where the electrodes / plates are immersed in electrolyte. Sealed Lead acid or valve-regulated Lead acid (VRLA) battery where the electrolyte is immobilized. All Lead-acid batteries produce hydrogen and oxygen gas (gassing) at the electrodes during charging through a process called electrolysis. These gases are allowed to escape a flooded cell, however the sealed cell is constructed so that the gases are contained and recombined.

Lead Acid Battery waste Recycling

The grid structure in both batteries is made from a Lead alloy. A pure Lead grid structure is not strong enough & therefore other metals like antimony, calcium, tin, and selenium in small quantities are alloyed for added strength and improved electrical properties.

The electrolyte in a Lead-acid battery is a dilute solution of sulfuric acid (H2SO4). The negative electrode of a fully charged battery is composed of sponge Lead (Pb) and the positive electrode is composed of Lead dioxide (PbO). The separator is used to electrically isolate the positive and negative electrodes.

The typical Lead-acid battery comprises of: metal grids, electrode paste, Sulphur acid, connectors and poles of Lead alloy, and grid separators made up of PVC. The battery components are contained in corrosion and heat-resistant housing usually composed of plastic (polycarbonate, polypropylene, or polystyrene).
