Since March of this year, nine ministries in the country held a teleconference focusing on the deployment of heavy metals, "2011 environmental protection special action", the spate of multi-contamination from lead-acid batteries, especially lead-acid batteries, Zhejiang Deqing contamination occurred, set off a nationwide large-scale remediation work.

It is understood that, with lead-acid battery business, Southern Power, Wolong Electric and other related announcement that the company has cut lead-acid battery business in early June just listed shares of camels were also reported in Hubei Province Department of Environmental Protection ordered to suspend production for rectification. In addition, as environmental remediation to expand the scope of Kazuma in Lin'an, Zhejiang Deqing cable and sublimation Beik, also because of environmental issues related companies ordered to stop by the local regulation.

 "Cut-off distance of a fixed target of security is required to reach 500 meters, almost not many companies able to achieve the safe distance." Lead-acid battery China Electrotechnical Society, Committee of General Xu Hong, frankly, "In fact, once the Zhejiang and Guangdong discontinued, reduced by at least half of lead-acid battery production, the country one thousand strong battery manufacturers have more than 500 concentrated in Zhejiang and Guangdong. "she said, AMD, Connaught, days, prosperity, four large lead-acid battery manufacturers have emerged suspend production for rectification, production of these enterprises account for at least 60% of battery capacity or more.

Some companies not only stop, and even in some areas to give lead-acid battery industry directly. Deqing County, Zhejiang Province, the Propaganda Department official, Deqing County, has shut down all the lead-acid battery manufacturers, workers in other job placement company, Deqing County, has decided to abandon the development of lead-acid battery industry. Not Deqing, many areas there have been a similar situation, Xu Hong, visited some areas found that some large battery manufacturers have begun to plant the demolition.

Remediation can really shut down a large area of ​​lead-acid battery industry, eliminate pollution? Xu Hong, expressed concern that in many places due to fear of further problems battery business, forced shut down, and there is no fixed schedule, this may allow some illegal and not registered with the Ministry of companies in the environmental advantage of the loophole, which is part of the enterprise is almost No environmental protection measures, a large number of tax evasion, is extremely detrimental to the development of the industry. Xu Hong introduction, although a large number of lead-acid battery business closed down, but some industry insiders lead metal, lead has not been much impact on sales. 60% of legitimate lead-acid battery production capacity has been shut down, and lead-acid battery industry accounted for 85% of the total demand for lead, while the market did not have too much lead in sales fluctuations, can explain this part of the lead Government can not control the flow of a large number of lead-acid battery production to the illegal enterprise. As the lead-acid battery industry still can not be replaced within a short time, Xu Hong appeal, the relevant departments should be relevant treatment options as soon as possible, otherwise it will affect China's export trade lead-acid batteries.
