AA Waste is based in Woking, Surrey, Chard, Somerset and Southampton, Hampshire. From these bases we provide a UK nationwide service for the packing, collection, recycling and disposal of thousands of chemical, hazardous, non-hazardous and special waste streams every year for companies and authorities across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
AA Waste deal with many different waste streams, one of them being battery disposal which has become a major issue in the UK. There are a number of different types of battery or cells, which come in an endless range of shapes and sizes. Listed below is a summary for the recycling of zinc air batteries.
Zinc air batteries are normally a 1.4 volt battery and as the name suggests it must be exposed to the air. When first used you would normally have to break a seal. This battery has a high self-discharge rate. Zinc air batteries are a recyclable battery. AA Waste will collect your spent zinc air batteries and take them to a fully licensed recycler where the recycling process begins. The recycling of zinc air batteries makes our recycling service successful from both environmental and cost perspectives.
