4 FAQs about Demand for sulfuric acid in all-vanadium liquid flow batteries

How does a vanadium flow battery work?

Fig. 2. A vanadium flow battery scheme. Pumps move the liquid electrolytes from the tanks to the stack where the redox reactions take place (courtesy of Elsevier J Power Sources ). A vanadium flow battery uses electrolytes made of a water solution of sulfuric acid in which vanadium ions are dissolved.

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.

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.

Does phosphate additive stabilize sulphuric-acid-based vanadium redox-flow batteries?

The role of phosphate additive in stabilization of sulphuric-acid-based vanadium (V) electrolyte for all-vanadium redox-flow batteries. Journal of Power Sources, 2017, 363: 234–243
