NiMH BATTERY RECYCLING

We Recycle Nickel Metal Hydride Batteries Nationwide

At Collect and Recycle, we specialise in recycling various types of batteries. Our team can collect nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery waste in bulk loads. We recycle NiMH batteries using safe, secure processes, ensuring your waste can be repurposed into new products.

Once the collection is booked, our team will collect the batteries employing specialised equipment whilst following strict safety protocols. This manages the risks associated with transporting these hazardous materials.

The collected batteries are then transported to a certified recycling facility where they undergo the recycling process. This process not only neutralises hazardous components but also recovers valuable materials like nickel, iron, and cobalt. These materials can then be used to manufacture new products.

Other types of batteries we specialise in disposing of include car batteries, EV batteries and dry cell batteries. If you generate any of the above please let us know when contacting our team.

While storing used NiMH batteries, keep them in a cool, dry place away from flammable materials until they can be recycled. Also, avoid storing them with other types of batteries, such as lead acid batteries or lithium ion batteries, to prevent any potential chemical reactions.

Our service also accepts other types of waste batteries, including alkaline batteries, lithium ion batteries, and nickel cadmium batteries, making it easier for businesses to manage their battery disposal needs comprehensively.

What Are The Risks Associated With Disposing Of Nickel Metal Hydride Batteries?

Improper disposal of Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries can pose several significant risks. These batteries contain heavy metals that can leach into the soil and water, causing environmental contamination that harms wildlife and ecosystems.

Exposure to the heavy metals in NiMH batteries can also be hazardous to human health, potentially leading to skin irritation, respiratory issues, and other health problems if not handled properly.

Additionally, disposing of NiMH batteries in regular rubbish increases the risk of fires and explosions, especially if they come into contact with other reactive materials like lithium-ion batteries. Businesses that do not comply with proper disposal regulations for waste batteries, including NiMH batteries, may face significant repercussions.
