Altmetrics 

Alkaline batteries are one of the most used types of household batteries. The annual consumption of billions of alkaline batteries produces battery wastes that are not recycled in most countries. In this study, alkaline battery waste management status was investigated by defining an economic model based on cost-benefit analysis. Scenarios for improving the current situation by combining battery waste reduction methods and developing battery waste recycling units were compared using this financial...
