Is An Emerging Market Coming From Recycling Electric Car Batteries?
Some are concerned that the lithium-ion car batteries used in electric cars will become new litter when they reach the end of their automotive life cycle. According to Green Car Reports, this concern has been raised over upcoming vehicles like the 2011 Nissan Leaf, 2011 Chevrolet Volt and 2012 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid. But, since lithium-ion packs retain much of their energy capacity even after they can’t operate a machine any longer, potential for recycling electric car batteries remains.
Recycling electric car batteries could become a huge green industry
By the end of the current decade, as predicted by Scientific American, recycling lithium-ion electric car batteries could help provide "energy accumulators for photovoltaic solar panels or wind turbines." Keeping with America’s green goals, that can be translated into power that can be stored, generated, and used all in the same place. An infrastructure for the electric car battery recycling industry will need to be built up, but Green Car Reports suggests following the lead of the lead-acid car battery recycling industry that's already in place.
Most recycled batteries in the world: 12-Volt lead-acid car batteries
That's what Scientific American reports, and considering that 70 million or more cars are built each year with lead-acid batteries under the hood, that makes sense. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency backs this up, too. Their records indicate that 100 million lead-acid car batteries are turned in each year, and 99 percent of those are recycled. Around 97 percent of the lead is recyclable, while the sulfuric acid can be turned into sodium sulfate which can be used in dyes and fertilizer. Plastic cases can also be recycled easily, but the tricky part is the acid. The Blacksmith Institute suggests that the waste product produced if a lead-acid battery is not dismantled properly contributed to one of the 10 worst pollutants on Earth. Thankfully, lithium-ion electric car batteries are "essentially non-toxic," writes Green Car Reports.
Toyota has the right idea
Despite the large problems the Japanese automaker has been experiencing due to sudden acceleration problems, Toyota is actually one of the leaders in being prepared for the upcoming lithium-ion electric car battery recycling industry. This is mostly due to the popularity of the Prius hybrid.

I'll be moving my 220 volt electric dryer outlet 8 ft within my laundry room.?
I must put a junction box within the old outlet location and run new wire with the wall studs after that. Can there be any reason I ought to not get it done such as this? Any useful hints? Thanks
Yes, use a junction box. It ought to be a 4x4 square metal box w/ cover. Make certain that you simply ground this area. Also, this area can't be hidden within a wall. If it's ever closed right into a wall, you need to leave an access panel to get at it. Also, make certain you apply the proper clamps/fittings for that box to operate the wire through. Should you just knockout the "holes" within the junction box and run the wire through, the perimeters are sharp and may cut the wire. One further factor, if you're running the wire across the face of the wall, i.e. foundation wall, you have to run the wire in conduit.
