The batteries delivered in the collection bunker are loaded into the feeding and metering system of the battery breaking and separation Plant.
The battery scrap is processed through a crushing mill and then separated in two streams, one for paste and one for the coarse part, in order to obtain the following products:
Lead Paste: The paste slurry collected in a tank can be delivered either to the desulphurization process or pumped to a filter-press for dewatering from where the paste cake is discharged in a dedicated area ready for smelting.
Polypropylene, discharged in a dedicated area.
Metallic fraction (grids and posts), which can additionally pass through a washing-desulphurization system and is finally divided in fine-sized fraction (mainly Grids and Pb-Ca part), and in coarse fraction (mainly posts and Pb-Sb part) which are discharged in dedicated boxes.
