 Nickel-Metal Hydride Battery Recycling System |
|
|
 |
|
|
| In preparing for recycling of
end-of-life Prius hybrid vehicles in the future, Toyota worked together with Panasonic
EV Energy (PEVE) and Seino Transportation Co., Ltd. to set up in 1998 a nationwide
recycling system that aims to collect and recycle all nickel-metal hydride batteries.
Toyota has also drafted a dismantling manual for nickel-metal hydride batteries,
which has been distributed to 1,300 collection and dismantling companies through
Toyotsu Recycle Corporation. |
