Did you know that fluorescent lamps, high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps, mercury devices, and batteries, contain heavy metals including mercury?

Due to the Federal Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) regulation on lamps, which went into effect in 2000, most non-residential facilities are required by law to properly dispose of their lamps. Inside a battery, heavy metals react with chemical electrolytes to produce the battery’s power. Some of these toxic heavy metals in batteries include nickel-cadmium, alkaline, mercury, nickel-metal hydride, and lead-acid, which can threaten our environment if not properly discarded.
