Battery Disposal

Proper handling and recycling of batteries to prevent fires and environmental harm.

Definition

Lithium-ion, NiMH, and lead-acid batteries must be recycled following local regulations and manufacturer guidance. Damaged or swollen batteries should be stored in a fireproof container and terminals taped. Never put batteries in regular trash.

Example

Tape the terminals of used laptop batteries and drop them at a certified e-waste recycler.

Exam tip

Battery disposal follows local environmental regulations, not general trash rules.
