Development Document for Effluent Limitations Guidelines and Standards for the Battery Manufacturing Point Source Category, Volume II. (See EPA 440-1-84-067B).
powered by 
Battery manufacturing encompasses the production of modular electric power sources where part or all of the fuel is contained within the unit and electric power is generated directly from a chemical reaction rather than indirectly through a best cycle engine. There are three major components of a cell --anode, cathode, and electrolyte --plus mechanical and conducting parts such as case, separator, or contacts. Production includes electrode manufacture of anodes and cathodes, and associated ancillary operations necessary to produce a battery.
