6.3.2 Scrapping a used battery
General cautions when asking for disposal of a used lithium battery.
1. Pile-up method and pile-up container
Pile up batteries so as not to form a short circuit, charge or overdischarge circuit among the
batteries. Pile them up in the following way.
• Use an insulating material for the pile-up container.
• Put batteries in line in good order according to each type and size. When piling up the
batteries in multiple steps, insert an insulating material between the steps to completely
prevent terminals from making contact with one another.
• Do not mix different types of battery and other metal materials (wires, nails, etc.) when
piling up batteries.
• Batteries having an offensive smell are hazardous, being flammable. Do not put such
batteries together with other batteries but put each of them in a vinyl bag and then pile it
up in good order. As a rule, the batteries having an offensive smell need to be disposed
of individually.
2. Pile-up place
• Pile up batteries in a place where no open fire exists nearby.
• Pile up batteries in a place near which there is not any hazardous substance specified in the
Fire Service Law.
• Pile up batteries in a place that is not exposed to rain and water.
3. Packing method
• Perform packing by taking a measure to avoid mixing batteries during transportation, for
example, by putting cushioning materials in a package.
• Put batteries in pile-up containers and put these containers in a corrugated fiberboard case
or wooden case using cushioning materials in a packing unit of 10 kg or less.
• Indicate the following contents on the packing case:
Used lithium battery, battery type (ER), prohibition of mixing with hazardous substances,
where to contact in an emergency, prohibition of water leak.
4. Transport method
• Do not mix batteries with the hazardous substances specified in the Fire Service Law.
• Put the goods in such a place as may go to a high temperature, for example, near a
radiator.
• Fix the goods against collapse of cargo.
• Take a measure so that the goods may not get wet in the rain or water.
Manifest information
Ask the specialist company of industrial waste disposal to dispose of used lithium batteries.
CAUTION
Handling batteries incorrectly will invite the danger of firing or bursting. Some of
used batteries may have a considerable remaining capacity. Observe the
general cautions for piling-up, packing, and transportation to forward used
batteries to the specialist company of waste disposal safely. Regarding
concrete packing and transportation methods, make previous arrangements
thoroughly with the person in charge of this specialist company.
