Drained Lead Acid Battery Scrap / Drained Whole Battery (Rains)

Drained Lead Acid Battery Scrap.. Lead acid batteries are made up of plates, Lead, and Lead oxide with a 35% sulfuric acid and 65% water electrolyte solution. Lead-acid batteries represent almost 60% of all batteries sold worldwide.

Classification:

Generally there are two types of Lead-acid storage batteries, based on their method of construction: flooded or sealed. Flooded (or wet) lead-acid batteries are those where the electrodes/plates are immersed in electrolyte. Sealed Lead acid or valve-regulated Lead acid (VRLA) battery, where the electrolyte is immobilized. All Lead-acid batteries produce hydrogen and oxygen gas (gassing) at the electrodes during charging through a process called electrolysis. These gases are allowed to escape a flooded cell; however, the sealed cell is constructed so that the gases are contained
