Abstract
For the recycling of electrical batteries, in particular of a mixture of high-power batteries for equipment of any chemical composition, and also of assembled printed circuit boards and electronic components, a pyrolysis of the unsorted mixture is carried out at a temperature between 450.degree. and 650.degree. C., then an electrolysis of the pyrolysis slag is carried out and subsequently a separation of the electrolysis products and removal of the products accumulating at the electrodes is carried out. In this process, which is economically profitable, no environment-polluting residues are produced and an initial sorting of material becomes unnecessary.
