rate of lead–acid battery exports from China, which declined at a stable rate after 2016. In 2018, the lead–acid battery export volume for China reached 190.23 million, whereas the import volume was only 10.94 million [16, 17]. This high-trade decit is one of the major causes of the relatively low lead-recycling rate in China.
Additionally, the inclusion of e-waste and widely used battery types (e.g., lithium-ion batteries, lead–acid batteries, and various household batteries) is critical to developing a comprehensive

Implementation of Battery Directives by EU and alarming level of pollution which probably increase the necessity of recycling plant for lead-acid batteries. The high consumption of lead batteries by various sectors will encourage the recycling market.
Waste lead-acid batteries are a type of solid waste generated by widely dispersed sources, including households, enterprises, and government agencies. Although the number of WLABs from each individual household is low, the total number of WLABs from society is high, causing great social concern.
The Spent Lead Acid Batteries (SLAB) contain dangerous and toxic contents such as lead, antimony, arsenic, and acids which contaminate the environment and pose a threat to public health. Recycling is the best choice to avoid these harmful effects. In North America, the SLAB recycling rate is near to 96%, the highest for any product in the economy.
Due to toxicity and high hazardous metal content, its storage and transportation are difficult which inhibits lead-acid battery recycling growth in the international market. Trained staff, provision of protective equipment, and close monitoring require which may increase overall recycling cost.
