What is 'cadmium'?

Cadmium is also another harmful chemical. Cadmium is found in the metal plating processes and also in battery making processes and recycling processes. If not recycled appropriately, batteries and other recycled waste are not recycled appropriately, the cadmium could be inhaled, and that would have adverse effects on the central nervous system for both humans and animals. Cadmium's greatest harmful effect comes through inhalation, so the appropriate recycling methodologies of batteries and other metal products is critical to keep cadmium out of the air.
