Abstract:
The generation of Scrap Lead-Acid Battery (LAB) in China has increased sharply in the recent decade and more than half of it comes from residents with automobiles and electric bicycles (E-bike). To investigate the behavior, awareness and willingness to pay (WTP), a sample of 1000 in Beijing was surveyed based on a questionnaire in June 2014. 70.95 % of residents will dispose LAB to maintainers or dealers and 17.22 % will dispose them to peddlers. 37.49 % of residents do not know that scrap LAB is hazardous. 38.22 % of residents who accept to pay prefer to pay by "trade old for new one", which is the most convenient way. 0-1 style logistic regression was used and found that only EPR knowledge and part household income have a relationship with WTP. contingent value method (CVM) was used and found that residents with automobiles accept 48.72 CNY/battery or 4.96 % of battery, whereas residents with E-bikes accept 26.05 CNY/battery or 4.04 %. 73.45 % of local residents make it clear that they want to pay to outside recycle plants which treat most of the scrap LAB from Beijing. These results can help authorities develop the fund impose method and value for scrap LAB from the resident view.
