Although separate collection systems for portable batteries (PBs) have been installed years ago, high amounts of batteries still do not enter the collection systems of the member states of the European Union (EU). In Austria, the collection rate has recently dropped to the EU target value of 45%. For the purposes of this study, a comprehensive survey was conducted to identify the destinations of the other end-of-life batteries. A literature survey and an assessment of different waste streams (WSs) were followed by sampling and sorting campaigns for highly relevant WSs (residual waste, lightweight packaging waste, metal packaging waste, and small waste electrical and electronic equipment). The results underwent material flow analysis, showing that more than 800 metric tonnes of portable batteries are misplaced into non-battery-specific collection systems, 718 metric tonnes of them entering residual waste collection. Considerable amounts of batteries are stockpiled, stored or hoarded in Austrian households. Lithium-based batteries, representing a serious risk of fire to the waste industry and making up for 30% of the marketed amount, are still scarcely arriving in waste management systems.

奥地利不同废物流中报废便携式电池和锂基电池的表征和材料流分析

尽管多年前已经安装了单独的便携式电池（PB）收集系统，但仍有大量电池没有进入欧盟（EU）成员国的收集系统。在奥地利，收款率最近已降至欧盟 45% 的目标值。出于本研究的目的，进行了一项综合调查，以确定其他报废电池的目的地。在对不同废物流 (WS) 进行文献调查和评估之后，对高度相关的 WS（残留废物、轻质包装废物、金属包装废物和小型废弃电气和电子设备）进行抽样和分类活动。结果经过物质流分析，显示超过 800 公吨的便携式电池被错误地放入非电池专用收集系统，其中 718 公吨进入了残余废物收集。大量电池储存、储存或囤积在奥地利家庭中。锂基电池对废物行业具有严重的火灾风险，占市场总量的 30%，但仍然很少进入废物管理系统。
