In this thread, I would like to discuss the different types of batteries or energy storage options out there that can be recycled for a profit. I know I recycle many types of batteries and I hope to start going into various details on each type.
Do you think this would be an interesting topic to discuss?

Today, I would like to highlight one of the many types of batteries that SEBR recycles, Absolyte. Absolyte GP batteries are manufactured and produced by Exide Technologies. Exide Technologies is an American manufacturer of lead-acid batteries.
Absolyte batteries are one of the hardest batteries to recycle. Most companies have to either pay to dispose of them, get pennies for the poundage or give them away for free.
Here at SEBR, we offer the best pricing for Absolyte Batteries in the Southeast and probably on the whole east coast. Below you can find standard information about Absolyte Batteries and there functionality as an Energy Storage option and solution.
