Material Recovery
Wilmington at a Glance
Wilmington's chemical industry heritage, anchored by DuPont, has left a strong infrastructure for hazardous materials handling including battery recycling.
Delaware's Universal Recycling Law requires businesses in Wilmington to properly recycle batteries rather than disposing of them in standard waste streams.
The Port of Wilmington provides logistics support for battery material exports and recycled metal shipments along the East Coast.
Recycling Process
Batterycle's recycling process begins with safe collection and transportation, followed by automated sorting by battery chemistry. Each chemistry is processed through optimized hydrometallurgical or pyrometallurgical methods to maximize material recovery. We recover up to 95% of critical materials and provide certificates of recycling for every batch.
Regulations in Delaware
Battery recycling in United States is overseen by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Battery recycling in the US is regulated under RCRA and the Mercury-Containing and Rechargeable Battery Management Act. Individual states may impose additional requirements. Lead-acid battery recycling rates exceed 99% nationally. Delaware's Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) oversees battery waste management.
