yourletters again even after abundant cooling, due to a chemical reaction in the battery. To stop this reaction, it is necessary to cool the battery for a long time. For this we therefore use a special container in which the vehicle can be immersed for an extended period. The container was placed in a remote parking lot. As soon as the vehicle has completely cooled down, a branch service will remove it from the container and transport it towards a scrap dealer. Not for the sake of immersion, but because a car like this is destroyed when the battery catches on fire. There was also some attention needed for the extinguishing water. After all, it was contaminated and we couldn’t just let it run away. It was collected in underground rainwater tanks and will be checked before processing.”
