Primary batteries - Part 6: Guidance on environmental aspects
IEC 60086-6:2020 applies to all chemistries of portable primary cells and batteries standardized in the 60086 series. The purpose of this document is to provide guidance on the proper scientific protocols for testing the environmental performance of batteries; the symbols used to convey messages for collection, recycling, or other ideas; and the aspects and functional unit(s) to be included in assessing the environmental impact of batteries with modern life-cycle analysis techniques
Primärbatterien – Teil 6: Leitfaden zu Umweltaspekten
Piles électriques - Partie 6: Recommandation sur les aspects liés à l'environnement
IEC 60086-6:2020 s'applique à toutes les compositions chimiques présentes dans les piles électriques et éléments portables normalisés dans la série IEC 60086. Le présent document a pour but de fournir des recommandations sur les protocoles scientifiques corrects pour les essais sur les performances environnementales des piles, sur les symboles des messages relatifs à la collecte, au recyclage et autres opérations, et sur les aspects et les unités fonctionnelles à prendre en compte lors de l'évaluation de l'impact sur l'environnement des piles par des techniques modernes d'analyse du cycle de vie.
