Government notifies Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022

New Delhi: On August 24, 2022, the Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change of the Government of India published the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022 to ensure environmentally sound waste battery management.

The publication of these rules is a significant step toward placing Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi's announcement to the nation in his Independence Day address on August 15, 2021, to promote Circular Economy in earnest into action.

Batteries (Management and Handling) Rules, 2001 will be replaced by new rules.

The rules apply to all types of batteries, including those used in electric vehicles, portable batteries, automotive batteries, and industrial batteries.

The rules are based on the concept of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), which states that battery producers (including importers) are responsible for waste battery collection, recycling/refurbishment, and the use of recovered materials from wastes in new batteries.

The rules will allow the establishment of a mechanism and centralised online portal for the exchange of EPR certificates among producers and recyclers/refurbishers to fulfil producers' obligations.

The rules encourage the establishment of new industries as well as entrepreneurship in the collection, recycling, and refurbishment of used batteries.

The rules requiring a minimum percentage of material recovery from waste batteries will bring new technologies and investment to the recycling and refurbishment industry, as well as new business opportunities.

The use of a certain number of recycled materials in the manufacture of new batteries will reduce the reliance on new raw materials and save natural resources.

Rules for ensuring effective implementation and compliance include online registration and reporting, auditing, and a committee for monitoring rule implementation and taking necessary measures to remove difficulties.

Environmental compensation will be imposed under the Polluter Pays Principle for failure to meet the Extended Producer Responsibility targets, responsibilities, and obligations outlined in the rules. The funds collected under environmental compensation will be used to collect and refurbish or recycle uncollected and non-recycled waste batteries.

How to get your ex boyfriend back even if it seems impossible. My boyfriend that left me a few months ago just came back to me last night crying for me to take him back. My boyfriend left me and I was devastated. The most painful thing is that I was pregnant for him. I wanted him back. I did everything within my reach to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so badly because of the love I had for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my sister and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back , I had no choice than to try it. I messaged the spell caster called dr.unity, and he assured me there was no problem and that everything will be okay before 28hours. He cast the spell and surprisingly 28 hours later my boyfriend called me. It was so surprising, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that had happened He wanted us to come back together. He also said he loved me so much. I was so happy and went to him that was how we started living together happily again.thanks to dr. unity . if you are here and your Lover is turning you down, or your boyfriend moved to another girl, do not cry anymore, contact Dr.Unity for help now.. Here his contact. WhatsApp him at: +2348055361568 , Email him at: Unityspelltemple@gmail.com , His website:http://unityspelltemple.website2.me
