12、an National Standard requires verification by the American National Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially co

13、ncerned with its scope and provisions. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly, and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanim

14、ity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The existence of an American National Standard does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether s/he has approved the standard or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purch

15、asing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. It is intended as a guide to aid the manufacturer, the consumer, and the general public. The American National Standards Institute, Inc., does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation

16、 of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute, Inc.

The purpose of this publication is to provide guidance o

29、n the proper scientific protocols for testing the environmental performance of batteries. This includes 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

30、life-cycle analysis techniques. While this publication covers portable primary cells and batteries, at the time of publication, the committee had started discussions about a similar publication for rechargeable batteries or inclusion of rechargeables in the next revision. This latest edition improve

31、s upon the 2015 edition by including details for article information sheets, a compliance checklist, extended producer responsibility and refined information on US and international requirements for environmental aspects as they relate or do not relate to batteries. Suggestions for improvement of th

41、 Wicelinski Duracell, Inc. ANSI C18.4M-2017 Page vii 2017 National Electrical Manufacturers Association Introduction Every product has some effect on the environment during its manufacture, distribution, use, and disposal. These effects can range from slight to significant; they can be short-term or

42、 long-term; and they can occur at the global, regional, or local level. Provisions in battery standards can significantly influence the extent of these environmental effects. Environmental stewardship in the battery industry embraces a multiplicity of activities, from design, manufacturing, transpor

43、tation, storage, and recycling, to disposal of the batteries. There are often questions on the applicability of regulations to batteries. This standard provides guidance on regulations applicable and not applicable to batteries, as well as procedures for measuring environmental characteristics. ANSI

44、 C18.4M-2017 Page viii 2017 National Electrical Manufacturers Association ANSI C18.4M-2017 Page 1 2017 National Electrical Manufacturers Association 1 Scope and Purpose 1.1 Scope This standard applies to all chemistries of portable primary cells and batteries standardized in the ANSI C18 series. 1.2

45、 Purpose This American National Standard is intended to: a. Raise awareness that provisions in battery standards can affect the environment in negative and positive ways; b. Outline the relationship between battery standards and the environment; c. Help avoid provisions in battery standards that mig

46、ht lead to adverse environmental effects; d. Emphasize that addressing environmental aspects in battery standards is a complex process that requires a balance in competing priorities; e. Recommend the use of recognized scientific methodologies when developing battery standards that incorporate envir

47、onmental aspects. In order to achieve this purpose, this standard: f. Sets forth general considerations that should be taken into account when developing battery standards which balance the need to achieve the intended product performance while reducing adverse environmental effects, and, g. Outline

48、s ways in which provisions in battery standards might affect the environment throughout the life cycle of battery products. 2 Normative References The following standards contain provisions that, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this American National Standard. At the time of

49、 publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this American National Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below.
