AI Customer ServiceLead battery recycling is a hazardous industry in Africa, as evidenced by our investigation into potential soil contamination at 15 recycling plants and one battery manufacturing site in seven countries. We collected and analyzed 118 soil samples for total lead.
Our results showed significant lead contamination around 15 licensed battery recycling plants. This shows that informal sector recycling is not the only source of lead pollution. Other studies have also reported excessive emissions from lead acid battery manufacturing and recycling plants in low and middle-income countries.
The problem is growing along with the market for lead batteries. This is due to lack of regulation and investment in environmentally sound battery recycling plants. Most facilities in Africa are small. They weren’t built with adequate pollution controls to prevent disasters and ongoing contamination.

This is due to lack of regulation and investment in environmentally sound battery recycling plants. Most facilities in Africa are small. They weren’t built with adequate pollution controls to prevent disasters and ongoing contamination. The production of lead batteries is growing rapidly in Africa as the market for lead batteries expands.
Lead battery recycling plants have been recognized as sources of airborne lead emissions that have resulted in lead contamination of soil and dust. Other research has focused on informal lead battery recycling and documented soil contamination in and around such activities.
