Why Recycle Li-Ion?
  1. Circular economy - with the respect to repair, reuse, recycle and recovery in mind.  All of these things equate to price stability and protects again price volatility. 
  2. Cost -  of newly mined raw materials is up 400%!!!  Which, will ultimately affect your industry due to the metals in your batteries.
  3. Safety – These batteries can be hazardous and have been known to explode and catch fire.  Properly recycling these batteries mitigates the risk and proves that you hold your stores in your industry to a higher standard.
  4. Landfilling – There are multiple incidents where trash companies are pleading to consumers and businesses to keep li-ion batteries out of the trash

  1. Supply Chain/Social Responsibility – Mining for raw Cobalt has become the new conflict mineral

Enabling a circular supply chain for batteries, we reduce the global need for mining of virgin material especially of conflict materials, like cobalt, found in lithium-ion batteries. We’ve recycled nearly 2 million pounds of these batteries year to date in 2017. This equates to up to 400,000 pounds of recovered cobalt that can be reused. It is a small part to ease the ever-rising demand for cobalt where, “thousands of miners in Congo dig by hand. Children, too,” according a recent The Washington Post article. These deplorable conditions urge us into full R&D mode in the product life extension for lithium-ion batteries, starting with laptop, power tool and cell phone batteries and working our way into electric vehicle battery reuse and re-purpose.

Recycling is part of my entire philosophy in life. I have always been great at tinkering with stuff, even as a kid, I have always been conducting projects with trash. I believe that there are objects that you can do even with trash. Recycling is part of my career, in fact, it is the biggest part of what gives me money. I hope that you have learned how much recycling can help you, there is money in trash, remember that.

this transportation is also environmentally friendly, as long as you buy a safe model that does not start burning. Nothing you found here need to worry about

Recycling is part of the entire philosophy of life. I'ma mechanic, I work a lot with all the power tools that use a lot of battery power and the time it takes is also stubborn and discarded. I hope that you have learned how much recycling can help you, with money in Trash, remember that. Wish you always live well
