6 FAQs about [Hazards of the lead-acid battery industry]

What are the implications of a lead-acid battery review?

The implications of this review are two-fold: it validates calls for a nationwide assessment of lead exposure pathways and levels in China as well as for a more comprehensive investigation into the health impacts of the lead-acid battery industry.

Why are lead-acid battery prices so high in China?

The unprecedented growth of China’s lead-acid battery industry from the electric bike, automotive, and photovoltaic industries may explain these persistently high levels, as China remains the world’s leading producer, refiner, and consumer of both lead and lead-acid batteries.

What are the environmental risks of lead-acid batteries?

The leakage of sulfuric acid was the main environmental risk of lead-acid batteries in the process of production, processing, transportation, use or storage. According to the project scale the sulfuric acid leakage rate was calculated to be 0.190kg/s, and the leakage amount in 10 minutes was about 114kg.

Why is lead poisoning a problem in China?

Despite China’s leaded gasoline phase out in 2000, the continued high rates of lead poisoning found in children’s blood lead levels reflect the need for identifying and controlling other sources of lead pollution. From 2001 to 2007, 24% of children in China studied (N = 94,778) were lead poisoned with levels exceeding 100 μg/L.

What is a vented lead acid battery?

Vented lead acid: This group of batteries is “open” and allows gas to escape without any positive pressure building up in the cells. This type can be topped up, thus they present tolerance to high temperatures and over-charging. The free electrolyte is also responsible for the facilitation of the battery’s cooling.

How many children in China are lead poisoned?

From 2001 to 2007, 24% of children in China studied (N = 94,778) were lead poisoned wi Health hazards of China's lead-acid battery industry: a review of its market drivers, production processes, and health impacts Environ Health. 2013 Aug 3;12:61.doi: 10.1186/1476-069X-12-61. Authors
