Once items are received, they are manually sorted by type and inspected to separate different components. Recovered materials, such as precious metals and plastics, go through processes like shredding and refining to achieve higher purity levels for reuse in manufacturing. Special attention is given to managing hazardous components like batteries and chemicals to prevent environmental harm.
In Australia, recycling old batteries is crucial for environmental protection and health safety. Batteries contain harmful chemicals like lead and mercury that can contaminate soil and water if not disposed of properly, posing risks to ecosystems and public health. Recycling conserves natural resources by reusing materials, reducing the need for new raw materials and the environmental impact of their extraction and processing. It’s also more energy-efficient, cutting down greenhouse gas emissions and aligning with Australia’s commitment to combating climate change.
