Trade in value - MBA bulge / swollen battery

2011 Macbook Air, powered on this morning, within 2-3 minutes all power off, then unable to close lid due new bulge in upper right trackpad area. A quick search found many similar situations. Although I have never seen this type of malfunction with any other old electronics product, I do not expect much of anything. However, any chance it would be accepted for some type of recycle or trade-in value? Or should I attempt to eBay it for parts? Thanks for any advice.
