Some batteries can be recycled. Most new types of batteries that are being produced for production electrics and hybrids that use batteries are very very expensive to recycle. If I remember correctly itÆs in the thousands of dollars.

You really shouldnÆt run E85 in a car that isnÆt made for it. The car needs to be a ôflexible fuel vehicleö. It normally is written on the gas cover lid. The other thing to remember is E85 dose not make as much horsepower as gasoline dose. It produces something like 11% less BTUÆs as gasoline dose. If you really want to run a fuel that produces more HP per gallon of fuel. Get some racing gas. Klotz, Trick, exc. TheyÆre an alcohol base fuel that is immensely clean compared to pump gas, and they produce about 15% more HP per Gallon. The other benefit of racing fuels is that you donÆt normaly need to modify you computer or O2 sensors. Although they do produce more heat, so an inter cooler or No2 ônitrous oxideö will help keep the temps down. But again with No2 you can run into lean out conditions that can severely damage your power plant. One of the problems with race gas is that it is about $15 to $35 a gallon. Not something youÆre going to use to get groceries with.
