Abstract:

Background: Hazardous materials, such as used batteries contain heavy metals and enter the solid waste stream, ending up in landfills. The present study was done to determine the amount of used batteries in Iran and their heavy metal contents in the batteries entering the landfill site in Tabriz. Methods: A questionnaire was applied to assess the current management condition of the used batteries in Tabriz and Ardabil as the representative cities of the entire country. The heavy metal content of ۱۵ AA-sized batteries was determined by inductively coupled plasma. Results: Our findings showed that ۱۴.۷% of the used batteries in Iran have been imported, and approximately ۷۶% and ۲۴% of the batteries analyzed at the landfill site were AA-sized and cellphone batteries, respectively. In ۶۰% of the studied batteries, the total heavy metal content was less than ۱۰۰ mg/kg.Conclusion: The results of this study could be a useful reference for global and local policymakers in developing effective regulations for the use of cleaner materials in the battery industry and controlling the used batteries from their generation to the end of the battery life.
