Technical FAQs 4

What is a Commercial electrolyte for vanadium flow batteries?

Commercial electrolyte for vanadium flow batteries is modified by dilution with sulfuric and phosphoric acid so that series of electrolytes with total vanadium, total sulfate, and phosphate concentrations in the range from 1.4 to 1.7 m, 3.8 to 4.7 m, and 0.05 to 0.1 m, respectively, are prepared.

Which electrolytes are supported in a vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB)?

A comparison study was conducted for various supporting electrolytes of sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4), hydrochloric acid (HCl), and mixed acids (H 2 SO 4 + HCl) in a vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB).

Are vanadium ions stable in sulfuric acid?

Among these, problems in the stability and solubility of vanadium species in sulfuric acid, especially for the V (V) ions in electrolytes with concentrations of more than 1.8 M and above 40 °C, are the two main challenges to be addressed. To increase the stability and solubility of vanadium electrolytes, different strategies have been suggested.

What is the Cs value for vanadium electrolytes based on sulfuric acid?

The CS value for vanadium electrolytes based on sulfuric acid is commonly in the range from 3 to 5 m according to the published data. The modification of electrolyte composition in this study includes consideration and variation of CV / CS ratio for the electrolyte composition by addition of acid and/or dilution of electrolyte.
