Overview of Recycling Registration
Lead acid batteries operate with lead and lead oxide electrodes in sulfuric acid. After use, they become hazardous waste. Recycling registration with the MoEFCC ensures your facility meets technical and environmental safeguards to handle spent batteries safely.
Why Recycle Lead Acid Batteries?
● 98% recyclability: Lead, plastic, and sulfuric acid are reusable ● Eco‑friendly: Reduces toxic waste and pollution ● Energy‑efficient: Recycled materials feed back into new batteries ● Worker safety: Regulated processes minimize health hazards
1. Documents Required for Registration
● Completed Form VI
● Consent under Water Act & Air Act
● Hazardous Waste Authorization (2008/2016)

Registration Process
