EcoserveIndia facilitates scrap battery export from India easily for you!

Scrap battery export from India is facilitated to more than 162 countries—however, our country exports most scrap batteries to Indonesia, Belgium and Ghana. In 2020-2021, India exported scrap batteries worth 263.4 million dollars. No wonder the stats show a fast flourishing scope of scrap battery export from India.

Scrap battery export - Overview

Scrap battery export from India has a huge scope. The process is governed by the Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management and Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2016. However, the latest Battery Waste Management Rules 2022 clearly defines the types of batteries. Read on to know everything in detail.

Ministries Regulating Battery Scrap Export from India

Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change or MoEF&CC - Regulates battery scrap export from India.
State Pollution Control Boards, SPCBs/Pollution Control Committees, or PCCs - Evaluating applications for allowing battery scrap exports and recommendations to MoEF&CC.
Ministry of Commerce & Industry - Import and export of battery waste.
Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) - Refusal of licence for hazardous and other wastes prohibited for export (including battery scrap).
Port authority - Verify the battery scrap export. Moreover, the authority is responsible for acting against exporters for violating norms under the Customs Act of 1962 and the Indian Ports Act of 1908.

Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022

Types of battery

An automotive battery is used for lighting, automotive starter or ignition power.

A battery is a new or refurbished battery/cell/their component, such as an accumulator, which is any source of electrical energy produced by direct conversion of chemical energy and includes a disposable primary or secondary battery.

An end-of-life battery is a battery that has been utilised, completed its intended use and is not created for refurbishment.

A portable battery is a battery that is not intended for industrial purposes, is sealed, less than five kgs, EV, or is to be utilised as an automotive battery.

An industrial battery is any battery intended for industrial uses, except portable, EV and automotive batteries. These can include sealed batteries (except potable batteries), unsealed batteries (except automotive batteries), and energy storage system batteries.

A used battery is a battery along with its components that have been used, have residual life and are ideal for refurbishment.

Waste battery includes:

Used/end-of-life battery or its spares/components/parts/consumables, which may not or may be hazardous;
Pre-consumer off-spec battery and its spares/components/parts/consumables;
Battery whose date for appropriate use has expired;
A battery that the user has discarded.

Hazardous & Other Wastes (Management & Transboundary Movement) (HOWM) Rules, 2016

Definitions

An exporter is any person or occupier under the jurisdiction of the exporting nation which exports waste, including the country which facilitates scrap battery export; Basel Convention is the UNs Environment Programme Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movement of HW & their Disposal;

Transboundary movement is any movement of hazardous or other wastes from a site within the jurisdiction of one nation to or via a place within the jurisdiction of another nation or to or through an area not within the jurisdiction of any country, given that at least two nations are engaged in the movement;

Other wastes mean wastes mentioned in Part B & D of Schedule III for export and include all such waste produced indigenously within the nation; and

Transport the off-site movement of hazardous or other wastes by air, rail, road or water.

Export (transboundary movement) of battery scrap

MoEF&CC is the nodal Ministry to handle the transboundary movement of battery scrap following the norms of these rules.

Strategy for battery scrap export from India

(1) The battery scrap export from India included in Parts A & B of Schedules III and VI must be with the MoEF permission. If applying for battery waste export, it is regarded based on the prior informed consent of the importing nation.

(2) The export of battery waste not mentioned in Schedule III but showcasing the hazardous characteristics mentioned in Part C of Schedule III requires prior written MoEF permission before it is exported from India.

Procedure for Battery Scrap Export from India

(1) Any occupier wishing to export battery waste mentioned in Part A of Schedule III, Part B of Schedule III and VI, must apply in Form 5. The form must accompany insurance cover to the MoEF&CC for the intended transboundary movement of the wastes along with the prior informed consent in writing from the importing nation related to the wastes mentioned in Part A of Schedule III and VI.

(2) On receiving the application, the Ministry grants permission for the intended battery scrap export within two months from the day of the complete application submission after imposing certain conditions as it may consider necessary.

(3) The Ministry forwards a copy of the issued permission to the SPCB of the state where the waste is produced and the PCC of the Union Territory where the export port is located. Another copy is also sent to the concerned Port and Customs authorities to ensure compliance with the conditions of the export permission.

(4) The exporter must also guarantee that no consignment is shipped before the prior informed consent is received from the importing nation, wherever applicable.

(5) The exporter must guarantee the shipment has the movement document in Form 6.

(6) The plastic waste exporter must retain the records of the waste he exports in Form 3, and that record be available for inspection.

Illegal Traffic

(1) The battery scrap export from India, respectively is deemed illegal if-

(i) it is without permission of the Central Government; or

(ii) the MoEF permission is obtained via misrepresentation, fraud or falsification; or

(iii) it doesn’t conform to the shipping information furnished in the movement documents; or

(iv) it results in deliberate disposal (i.e., dumping) of hazardous or other waste in contravention of the Basel Convention & general principles of domestic or international law.

Transportation of Plastic Waste

(1) In case of battery scrap transportation for final disposal to a facility nestled in a state except where the waste is produced, the sender must get a ‘No Objection Certificate’ from the SPCB of both states.

(2) The transport of scrap batteries must be as per the norms of these rules & the guidelines formulated by the Central Government under the Motor Vehicles Act (MVA), 1988 & the instructions framed by the CPCB from time to time.

(3) The occupier must give the transporter the relevant details in Form 9 concerning the nature of the wastes and steps to be followed in an emergency and must label the hazardous and other waste containers according to Form 8.

(4) In transporting the battery scrap, the responsibility of safe transport must be either of the receiver or the sender, whosoever arranges the transportation and holds the compulsory authorisation for transport from the related SPCB. This responsibility must be indicated in the manifest.

Liability of battery scrap exporter

The exporter of battery scrap from India stands liable for all damages caused to the third party or the environment because of improper handling and management of the waste battery.

General Requirements for Battery Scrap Export from India
