Abstract:
This report estimates the collection potential of nickel-cadmium batteries, i.e. the total quantity of NiCd batteries that could be collected in a given year, provided that the users dispose of all NiCd batteries through the Danish separate collection system for NiCd batteries, and not discarding them with household waste etc. Comparing the potential with the real collection rate shows that only about half of the amount of NiCd batteries disposed of, is collected via the separate collection system.

Abstract in Danish:
Rapporten vurderer indsamlingspotentialet for nikkel-cadmium-batterier i Danmark, dvs. den samlede mængde NiCd-batterier, som kunne indsamles i et givent år, hvis brugerne bortskaffede alle NiCd-batterier i overensstemmelse med den særskilte nikkel-cadmium-indsamlingsordning og ikke kasserer dem sammen med husholdningsaffaldet. Sammenholdes potentialet med, hvad der reelt samles ind, ses at kun omkring halvdelen af NiCd-batterierne bliver indsamlet via den særskilte indsamlingsordning.
