In the future, recycling fees will be staggered based on heavy metal content, and cadmium and mercury containing batteries must carry the recycling mark as according to regulations. The EPA will increase the number of recycling points and hopes to raise recycling rates above 25% by the end of next year.
After a period of deliberation, on October 28 the EPA formally announced that all batteries would be recycled starting in November. In the past only mercury and nickel cadmium batteries, the batteries with the highest heavy metal content, were listed for recycling. However, consumers were always unclear as to which batteries they were required to recycle, making efforts to raise recycling rates difficult. It was against this background that comprehensive battery recycling was proposed.
Currently, a mere 29 tons of batteries are reported for recycling each year, in contrast to the average of 3,500 tons sold in Taiwan each year. This large percentage of un-recycled batteries contributes a significant environmental burden. In addition, EPA market samples revealed that heavy metal content in batteries not mandated for recycling is still very high. In light of these facts, the EPA chose to begin comprehensive recycling of dry-cells to both increase battery recycling and encourage enterprises to lower heavy metal content.
The EPA pointed out that after comprehensive recycling of dry-cells begins, the public will no longer be required to separate different battery types and will be able to bring them to recycling points set up in large vendors, supermarkets, retailers and pharmaceutical stores. After validation, recycling vendors can receive a subsidy of 5 NTD per kilogram of batteries recycled.
Furthermore, after comprehensive recycling of dry-cells begins, in the future a differential recycling fee will be applied to encourage industries to manufacture products with lower heavy metal content. If mercury, cadmium or lead contents surpass certain base values, then recycling fees will be doubled.
According to the EPA announcement, enterprises must turn in recycling fees based on business volumes and the differential fee rates. They will also be required to place the recycling symbol on either the battery cell or packaging of mercury and cadmium batteries. In addition to individual battery cells, battery packs and batteries sold with a product are also included in recycling standards. However, batteries only offered for export are not subject to restrictions listed in the announcement.
For public convenience, in addition to the current 5,000 recycling points located at large vendors, supermarkets, wholesalers, and pharmaceutical stores the EPA will subsidize the Clocks and Watches Association to set up 1,000 recycling points for button-style batteries. In the future, the EPA will also promote the set up of other recycling points. The EPA hopes that by the end of next year battery recycling rates will exceed 25%. , 欄位全文的內容是After a long deliberation on how to lower heavy metal content in batteries and encourage their recycling the EPA decided to formally move ahead with comprehensive battery recycling beginning in November.

摘要
After a long deliberation on how to lower heavy metal content in batteries and encourage their recycling the EPA decided to formally move ahead with comprehensive battery recycling beginning in November.
