Very soon, a pilot project for the recycling of lithium-ion batteries will be launched in Bulgaria. This is what BalkanEngineer.com learned from BTA. Until now, these batteries were a small quantity and were exported to other European countries for safe disposal and recycling.

 

 

Alexander Yavriyski, executive director of Ecobatteries AD, explained that thanks to the project, effective national coverage will be achieved regarding the collection of portable batteries and electronic equipment. The law requires collection of at least 45% of these batteries, which has already been achieved and even exceeded in the last dozen years.

 

The Council of the European Union has approved new rules for the production, processing and sale of batteries, according to which by 2030 manufacturers will have to buy back 73% of their products, which will also help to more effectively recycle and reuse lithium- ion batteries.
