Based on the results presented in thermodynamic analysis and low-temperature smelting process, an integrated flowsheet was proposed for the recovery of lead from waste lead-acid batteries at the scale of 200, 000 tons annually since 2019 (Fig. The whole production line mainly included raw materials process, smelting process and gas.
The lead–acid battery is generally used in vehicles as an energy storage device, backup power supply, and stationary applications [ 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ]. However, lead–acid batteries have a fundamental disadvantage of low life expectancy. The life expectancy of the lead batteries is no more than five years.
Lead-acid batteries (LABs) have been undergoing rapid development in the global market due to their superior performance,, . Statistically, LABs account for more than 80% of the total lead consumption and are widely applied in various vehicles .
After more than 150 years of continuous development and improvement, lead-acid batteries (LABs) have become a widely used chemical power source worldwide, with good electrochemical reversibility, stable voltage characteristics, and wide application range [ 1, 2, 3 ].
The raw lead–acid battery wastewater sample was generated from a lead–acid battery company and kept in plastic bottles. The battery company had no recycling system; therefore, the sulfuric acid from the used lead–acid battery was directly poured into a storage tank.
The recovery efficiency of lead from lead paste increased and then reached maximum value of 93.2%, as the reductant dosage was increased from 8% to 12%. Therefore, the reductant dosage of 10% was chosen for the subsequent experiments. Reduction time is another parameter that affect lead paste reduction process.
Lead-acid batteries are the most widely used type of secondary batteries in the world. Every step in the life cycle of lead-acid batteries may have negative impact on the environment, and the assessment of the impact on the environment from production to disposal can provide scientific support for the formulation of effective management policies.
