Abstract :
As a great country of battery producing, China also consumes a large quantity of batteries as well. However, the recovery rate of waste battery in China is far lower than that in developed countries. Itpsilas not only polluting our environment and doing harm to our health to discard so many used batteries at will, but also wasting so many precious resources. Firstly, this paper introduces the situation of waste battery both at home and abroad, and its harm to the environment and human beings. Then the purpose and the significance of the waste batterypsilas reverse logistics are illustrated. Finally, the mathematical model is established to analyze quantitatively how to enhance the management of reserve logistics by using repurchase pricing mechanisms.
