  1. Why is Battery Waste a Burgeoning Problem in India? When brooding on how to dispose batteries in India, the idea of structured and monitored waste collection sites pops up immediately. Unfortunately, the thoughts are not alike for all and sundry. Very few are truly familiar with the idea of listed waste management companies in India or waste collection sites. People are quick to discard the spent batteries in the open without realising the potential hazards these poses. For example, do you know that batteries are brimming with toxic and flammable chemicals? If yes, then isn’t it only wise to count the horrible impacts of trashing and exposing the chemicals directly to the environment? Responsible recycling of batteries is mandatory to keep the rising pile of battery waste in check. IEC campaigns or information, education, and communication strategies are well-informed to the people to create a rising awareness of the spike in battery waste and advocate ways on how to dispose batteries in India. It might surprise you to learn that by 2030, the estimated battery waste is expected to scale to a whopping volume of 14 lakh tonnes. If responsible recycling is not embraced now, you can only imagine the awful aftermath. The present planetary crisis will double and worsen. It also ascertains that recycling alone is not enough to nip in the bud. The rapidly diminishing resources stand out as a critical issue too. Hence, the only strategic move that is expected to work wonders is circular economy. Leading names practising circular economy in India includes Karo Sambhav. The strategic practice involves a guided way to ensure that resources remain longer in a closed loop. Of course, the benefits are clear. Responsible recycling of batteries via circular economy ensures maximum extraction of valuable components in an exhausted battery, refurbishing, and renewed use of the same components. It naturally scales back the ratio of mining and mindless trashing. In short, circular economy is one of the effective ways to dispose batteries the right way. As one of the listed waste management centres in India, the organisation endeavours to set up battery waste collection centres for enterprises and individuals to toss out the spent batteries more carefully and responsibly.
