 | | Nickel-cadmium batteries, both the portable rechargeable consumer types and larger industrial cells (aircraft, railroad, electric vehicle, telecommunications, standby power and emergency lighting), may be collected and recycled through a wide variety of mechanisms. |
 | | NICKEL-CADMIUM BATTERIES, which are found in a variety of applications including cordless and cellular phones, power tools, household appliances, hobbies and games, camcorders and computers, CAN BE RECYCLED in a number of countries. |
 | | Nickel-cadmium (NiCd) collection and recycling programs have been established in many OECD Member countries, providing opportunities for both general consumers and industrial users to ensure that their spent batteries will be recycled and the environment protected. |
