As technology advances, lithium-ion batteries power nearly everything—from smartphones to laptops and power tools. But over time, these batteries can swell or “bloat,” becoming a hidden fire hazard in homes and workplaces.
A bloated battery is not just damaged—it’s dangerous. The swelling occurs when internal gases build up from overcharging, aging, or exposure to heat. If punctured or crushed, these batteries can ignite or release toxic fumes, making proper handling critical for safety.
At EnviroGreen Electronic Recycling, we’ve created a safe and secure de-energizing process using a specialized brine solution that neutralizes the electrical charge in swollen or compromised lithium-ion batteries. This process prevents potential fires and ensures the battery can be safely recycled and responsibly disposed of.
To protect your home, business, and the environment, never throw bloated batteries in the trash or recycling bin.
