ADR special provision 377

Lithium and sodium ion batteries sent for disposal or recycling may be packed to P909, are exempt from the 2.2.9.1.7 test conditions and need a special mark.

Cells and batteries of lithium metal, lithium ion or sodium ion chemistry, and equipment holding them, sent for disposal or recycling may be packed to P909, whether or not mixed with other battery types. They are relieved of 2.2.9.1.7.1 (a)-(g) or 2.2.9.1.7.2 (a)-(f), whichever applies. Disposal consignments are marked "LITHIUM BATTERIES FOR DISPOSAL" or, for sodium ion, "SODIUM ION BATTERIES FOR DISPOSAL"; recycling consignments carry "LITHIUM BATTERIES FOR RECYCLING" or, for sodium ion, "SODIUM ION BATTERIES FOR RECYCLING". Batteries identified as damaged or defective go under special provision 376 instead.
