When you replace the battery in your car, the lead is nearly ALWAYS recycled.
Usually the entire battery is reconditioned,
I always replace my car batteries with recycled 12v batteries. $29.95 vs $95.98 for a new one
The new battery lasts for average of five years, the recycled one for at least four.
The Lithium in a Lithium battery is not consumed, so it can be recycled.
It is simply a matter of inventing an efficient way to do this.
