Problems solved by technology

In sulfuric acid solution, the stability of V(II), V(III), and V(IV) increases with temperature rise, but V(V) will produce thermal precipitation effect at 40°C and above, so it is used for The preparation method of the electrolyte of the all-vanadium redox flow battery is limited by the solubility of vanadium in different valence states in the range of 10°C-40°C. The total vanadium concentration of the electrolyte is generally in the range of 2.0mol / L, which restricts the improvement of specific energy.

Abstract

The invention relates to a high-concentration vanadium electrolyte and a preparation method thereof. The high-concentration vanadium electrolyte comprises a positive electrolyte and a negative electrolyte of vanadium ions and sulfoacid ions. The positive electrolyte mainly contains tetravalent and quinquevalent vanadium ions [V(VI) and V(V)]; and the negative electrolyte mainly contains trivalent and divalent vanadium ions [V(III) and V(II)]. Sulfoacid can be methanesulfonic acid or another sulfoacid, and the general formula of the sulfoacid is shown as R-SO3H, wherein R represents alkyls or other groups. Another sulfoacid can be trifluoromethanesulfonic acid or sulfamic acid. In the preparation method, one or more vanadium oxides and a selectable reducing agent are dissolved in a sulfoacid solution to obtain precursors of the positive electrolyte and the negative electrolyte respectively; and the precursors of the positive electrolyte and the negative electrolyte are electrolyzed respectively to obtain a positive electrolyte and a negative electrolyte of oxidation reduction cells, wherein the positive electrolyte and the negative electrolyte can form various kinds of oxidation reduction cells as active materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical power sources, and in particular relates to a high-concentration vanadium electrolyte used for positive electrode electrolyte and negative electrode electrolyte of redox batteries and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Redox battery refers to a type of battery: the electroactive material of the battery exists in the form of ions or ion associations dissolved in the electrolyte during the charging and discharging process of the battery. A redox flow battery is a special type of redox battery. The positive and negative active materials of this type of battery are stored in two liquid storage tanks respectively. During operation, the positive and negative electrolytes flow through the positive half-cell and the negative half-cell, respectively, under the external force of the pump. The capacity of this type of battery is determined by the volume of the liquid storage tank,...
