The invention discloses a method for eliminating impurity influence of an all-vanadium redox flow battery electrolyte. The method comprises the steps of adding a complexing agent into the electrolyte, and fully stirring the electrolyte, wherein the complexing agent is phosphoric acid, inorganic phosphate, hydramine, amino carboxylate, hydroxy carboxylate or organic phosphate. By the method, the steps of impurity elimination during the preparation process of the electrolyte is omitted or reduced, the operation process is simple, the product is rich in raw material, complicated impurity elimination equipment is not needed to be matched, the impurity elimination cost is low, and the method is suitable for application on a large scale; by a mode of adding the complexing agent, impurity metal ions form a complexity body, a reaction electrical pair shifts out of a reaction potential section of an active substance of the all-vanadium redox flow battery electrolyte, the hydrogen evolution promotion effect of the metal ions is eliminated, the hydrogen evolution quantity of the redox flow battery is reduced, the capacity attenuation is reduced, and the lifetime of the redox flow battery is prolonged; and impurity ions introduced during the construction, running and maintenance process of the redox flow battery can be rapidly eliminated, and the method is simple and convenient and is suitable for promotion and application.
