The Impact of Pulse Technology On The Environment
Dallas, Texas -- PulseTech offers a line of products that will help protect the environment from the hazards of discarded lead-acid batteries. These battery maintenance products use a patented pulse technology that will reduce a large number of batteries dumped in landfills every year by extending battery life dramatically.
Every day the concern for the welfare of the environment continues to increase world wide. Traumatic and irreparable damage is being caused by rampant waste and pollution. Among this waste is the damage inflicted by lead and sulfuric acids leaking from batteries that have been disposed of incorrectly. This leakage is seeping into waterways, soil and even the air we breathe. Even small amounts of lead can cause severe damage to animals and humans who ingest it, especially children.
The battery disposal problem has become so severe that certain governments are passing stricter laws to try and control it. Many are literally banning battery disposal all together. Others are mandating recycling programs, but it is estimated that only about 75% of all dead batteries are actually recycled. That means the remaining 25% are still being left in landfills or even more sensitive areas.
As newer and more effective recycling programs are initiated, the number of recycled batteries should increase. But, in the meantime other measures need to be taken. The most effective and obvious measure of reducing the number of discarded batteries is to keep them in service longer. And the most effective way of achieving that goal is to use Solargizer, PowerPulse and other battery maintenance systems from PulseTech.
These products use a patented "pulse" technology that extends battery life dramatically by keeping them in peak condition. Pulse technology is unique because it is the first and only method available for completely removing sulfation buildup (sulfate deposits) from the battery's lead plates. And according to a recent survey, sulfation buildup and related problems are the main reason over 80% of all batteries die every year.
The interesting thing is that these batteries are actually still usable. The problem is that the plates have become so coated by these sulfate deposits they can no longer release or accept energy. In the past, nothing could be done to solve this major problem. But now pulse technology will eliminate sulfation buildup and clean the battery plates.
Pulse technology works by emitting a pulsating dc current into the battery. This current actually re-energizes the sulfates, removes them from the plates and returns them to the battery acid as active electrolyte. It will also keep the deposits from forming again. As a result, the 80% of all batteries that die every year due to sulfation buildup will last longer which means they will not have to be discarded. Plus, they will also perform better than ever before.
Of course, PulseTech's battery maintenance systems are not miracle cures, and the reduction of battery waste will not happen over night. But look at it this way: the more vehicles and pieces of equipment that use Solargizer and other PulseTech products, the longer batteries will last. Who knows what kind of impact that will have on the environment in the future?
