Icon of UN Sustainable Development Goal 3 – Good Health and Well-being.

Sustainable Development Goal 3 (SDG 3), “Good Health and Well-Being,” aims to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. It focuses on reducing communicable and noncommunicable diseases, preventing environmental and occupational hazards, and strengthening health and safety systems.

SDG 3 encompasses physical, mental, and environmental health. It targets the reduction of diseases caused by air, water, and soil pollution, the prevention of exposure to hazardous chemicals, and the promotion of safe working conditions. This goal highlights the link between public health, industrial sustainability, and the quality of professional processes.

Thanks to our lead-acid battery regeneration and lithium battery reconditioning technology, we are actively contributing to SDG 3 by reducing the major health risks inherent in the battery industry:

    • Protection of workers and the environment: By extending the life of batteries and avoiding their incineration or landfill disposal, we limit exposure to heavy metals (lead, lithium, cadmium) and acids, which are responsible for poisoning and chronic diseases.
    • Reducing chemical pollution: Fewer batteries produced or disposed of means a significant reduction in toxic leaks into soil and groundwater, thereby reducing the incidence of diseases linked to environmental contamination.
    • Occupational health and safety: The automated desulfation and regeneration processes we use minimize the handling of hazardous substances and improve the safety of our operators and maintenance professionals.
    • Collective well-being and public health: By reducing the volume of hazardous waste in the community, we directly contribute to air quality, ecosystem protection, and the establishment of a healthier living environment for the entire community.

The result is a significant reduction in toxic waste, particulate emissions, and chemical exposure, while preserving natural environments and securing industrial infrastructure. With our sustainable battery regeneration solution, we actively support a preventive approach to health, which is perfectly aligned with the global goals of Agenda 2030. In fact, we are simultaneously contributing to the protection of human life, the safety of professionals, and the preservation of the environment.

SDG 6 – Clean water and sanitation

Protecting water resources through regeneration

 

Illustration of SDG 6 “Clean Water and Sanitation” representing water conservation. Be Energy is working towards this goal by regenerating batteries in order to limit toxic waste and contamination of soil and groundwater.

Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6), “Clean Water and Sanitation,” aims to ensure universal access to safe drinking water, hygiene, and sanitation, while ensuring sustainable management of water resources. It focuses on reducing water pollution, improving wastewater treatment, optimizing water use, and preserving aquatic ecosystems essential to human life and health, such as groundwater, wetlands, rivers, and lakes.

Global demand for water is increasing, while industrial and chemical discharges are compromising the quality of available resources. SDG 6 therefore encourages water conservation and the restoration of aquatic ecosystems by promoting the circular and rational use of water in industrial processes, as well as innovative solutions to reduce water stress on a global scale.

By applying our lead-acid battery regeneration and lithium battery reconditioning technology, we are making a significant impact on SDG 6 by reducing both industrial water consumption and water pollution:

    • Elimination of water-intensive processes: The manufacture of a new battery is inherently a water-intensive process, requiring a large volume of water for lead refining, electrode plate production, and industrial cooling. By extending the life of existing batteries, we avoid these “water-costly” processes, thereby saving an essential resource.
    • Prevention of chemical discharges into water: Regeneration prevents the dispersion of heavy metals (lead, cadmium, lithium) and sulfuric acids. This prevention is crucial, as it limits the pollution of water resources (groundwater and waterways) and the degradation of aquatic ecosystems.
    • Reduction of the overall water footprint: Each battery we regenerate results in a significant reduction in the amount of water required and the toxic discharges usually associated with the production and disposal phases.
    • Protection of natural environments: By reducing the overall demand for virgin materials and, consequently, the impact of mining sites, we indirectly contribute to the preservation of sensitive water ecosystems such as watersheds, aquifers, and wetlands.

By replacing systematic replacement with battery regeneration, we are actively participating in a circular water economy: less production, less pollution, and greater resilience of water resources for future generations. Our approach is fully in line with the vision of SDG 6, which aims for a world where water, a vital resource, is protected, valued, and managed sustainably for all.
