Great Job!

New garbage for our already dieing world on behalf of the n,w,order.

What kind of steam temperature and pressure do you run? Any reheat?

What those men think is smoke is deadly gases likely to explode - if it is a lithium battery explosion they are in serious danger to their health. A lithium ion battery is not a fire, it is an explosion and is very difficult to put out unlike an ordinary battery. Do not breath in this gas and get away as quickly as possible. Even fire brigades are not up to date with these dangerous bomb-batteries. Send them back to the manufacturers - sue them if you are damaged because they all know how dangerous these batteries really are. Regards.

Safe and effective folks!

Ok so what happens with the smoke?

impressive team work especially the mini digger operator

They just throw then in the land fills nowadays.

Yeah why????

WHY?

And not 1 of them even thought of getting some water and dousing the fire....not 1!

I have several questions, how can I contact you directly?

beautiful teamwork

Make sure you dispose of your battery correctly

lol i always throw my lithium battery to the garbage 🤣🤣

Courageous staff 😄

If you park next to an EV you take a risk.

meanwhile disposable vapes with rechargeable li-ion batteries exist

STOP, DROP, & TEXT

Never throw batteries into garbage. Throw them in the ocean. They make excellent coral beds due to their unique ability where Lithium binds with the salt in the water, creating hardshell artificial reefs!

"Environmental friendly"...

These batteries are no good, very dangerous.

I don't understand how people can throw a battery into such garbage. It's like throwing a gas tank full of fuel into such garbage.

Once they start they dont stop until they expel all their energy . Big problems when they go up in a large pile . Ah so green hey . What a joke thats being pushed upon the morons .

This is what will be in your electric cars check it out on you tube.💥🔥💥🔥😞

That's what ya get when you are dumb enough to throw garbage in with your batteries.

Spray water on it!

What a bummer. This is not what is meant by recycling your old batteries.

I'm impressed on how good the workers dealt with everything

There are public garages in a few different countries that are banning electric cars due to issues like this. Can y'all just imagine if every single car in the world was electric. Lithium batteries can be very safe the problem is some people neglect them due to financial reasons and a lot of people modify them to make their battery operated stuff more powerful. Just imagine if the whole world had only batteries in their cars and in their houses. I just don't think people are responsible enough to where we can get there yet

Vary nice

this will be a daily thing in a few years when we have brainwashed enough people that battery power is the answer to everything...

Must have been one of those pouch batteries

FYI if you own an electric car, there's a giant one sitting right under you ready to violently combust at a moment's notice. 😉

I bring them to best buy.

Lithium in it's dangerous form (requiring strict education what not to do with it) never should have been used in consumer products. We have people that throw cellphones in trash, continue using bloated battery packs, poking battery with knife. They won't know it's danger until they get hurt from it. They def won't witness that someone that work in handling all their trash might get hurt from one little battery. I wish these life moments were shown in school and got discussed a bit such that future generations would grow up being part of the orchestra instead of soloing like most today in disarray.

Quick thinking by the staff

Good handling of the situation. The staff handled that very well <3

Like ants

looks like a cartoon

I think in one video I heard they use some of the ash in some incinerators for in cement/concrete

There was two tipe of boombs Frist was drunk driving second battery's blasts

Waw

I bet that smoke is bad for the lungs

Wooo

Maine has an outstanding recycling system in place, as well as wonderful tools for educating the public about the importance of recycling. The rest of the country (and world) should look to follow Maine's example in this area.

It needs to be made known that you should submerge old batteries in a bucket of salt water for a week or so before then using a multimeter to test for any residual voltage, if its zero, then it can be safely disposed of. I have a lot of rc cars and planes and a few boats, and tbh sometimes batteries get damaged and though are still useable, aren't safe and need to be removed from service, this is how i dispose of them, and have never had a fire or heard of one happening after ive disposed of one

Just wait till the drying world is filled with electric cars. Cars that will surly being crashing into each other. This will be a scene coming to an area near you.

Dang, I'm gonna switch my grill from Kingsford charcoal to the batteries. You can put that fire out.
