Multiple requests from the same IP address are counted as one view. In this study, we present a low-cost and simple method to treat spent lead–acid battery wastewater using quicklime and slaked lime. The sulfate and lead were successfully removed using the precipitation method.
Various methods of driving the insoluble lead-sulfate back into solution have been proposed and tried, all based on over-voltage. One rather intrusive method is to replace the sulfuric acid electrolyte with a greatly weakened version and then apply an over-voltage for a prolonged period of time before restoring a full strength electrolyte.
The precipitation method is used to efficiently remove sulfate and lead from the wastewater. In addition, carbon dioxide gas was bubbled into the reaction to increase lead removal efficiencies as well as reduce the pH value to about 7 to meet relevant standards of environmental regulations.

In this work, the sulfate and lead were successfully treated by using quicklime and slaked lime through a precipitation method. For both quicklime and slaked lime samples, the sulfate SO 42- removal efficiencies were more than 97% and the lead removal efficiencies were 49% for quicklime and 53% for slaked lime.
The removal efficiency of lead was increased after using a carbonation step with 68% for quicklime and 69% for slaked lime. The carbonation process not only enhanced the lead removal efficiency in the battery wastewater but also reduced pH to meet requirements of environmental regulations.

Lead–acid battery
The lead sulfate first forms in a finely divided, amorphous state and easily reverts to lead, lead dioxide, and sulfuric acid when the battery recharges. As batteries cycle through numerous discharges and charges, some lead sulfate does not recombine into electrolyte and slowly converts into a stable crystalline form that no longer dissolves on recharging. Thus, not all the …
How to Remove Sulfation From Lead Acid Batteries
Sulfation is a natural chemical process that takes place, if lead-acid battery plates are exposed to air, or the specific gravity goes below 1.225. Sulfation occurs when soft lead sulfate, which is a combination of lead and sulfur, cystalizes into hard lead sulphate. It results in the battery cells being unable to ...
