Therefore, batteries and accumulators should be disposed of only in dedicated containers or delivered to selective municipal waste collection points (PSZOK). Thanks to recycling, we are able to recover most of the components from them and use them again to produce other items.

Interzero, wanting to show the essence of the problem in an accessible way, has prepared an animation that shows the effects of throwing away used batteries and accumulators, e.g. into mixed waste. Batteries and accumulators are a source of many heavy metals such as lead, mercury, nickel and zinc. The listed components are not neutralised in the environment, and their release poses a serious threat to the entire ecosystem. Some raw materials can contaminate soil and groundwater.

Therefore, batteries and rechargeable batteries should only be disposed of in dedicated containers or handed in at selective municipal waste collection points (PSZOK). By recycling, we are able to recover most of the components from them and reuse them for further items.

Sort batteries and accumulators correctly!

The society uses batteries and accumulators every day - from small devices such as flashlights, telephones, toys or laptops to larger mechanisms such as lawnmowers and cars. Few people, however, realise how dangerous it is to sort them incorrectly when they run out.

Interzero has developed an animation to show the problem in an easy-to-understand way, demonstrating the consequences of disposing of used batteries and accumulators in, for example, mixed waste. Batteries and accumulators are a source of many heavy metals such as lead, mercury, nickel and zinc. These components are not neutralised in the environment, and their release poses a serious threat to the entire ecosystem. Some raw materials can lead to soil and groundwater contamination.
