Abstract

The invention provides a regeneration method for a waste liquor of an all-vanadium flow battery. The method comprises the following step of: reducing, namely enabling positive electrolysis waste liquor obtained after charging the all-vanadium flow battery for the first time to be in contact with a reducing agent to make a pentavalent vanadium positive ion VO<2+> reduced into a tetravalent vanadium positive ion VO<2+> so as to obtain electrolyte. The electrolyte regenerated by the method provided by the invention can be used for charging and discharging the vanadium battery again.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for regenerating waste liquid of an all-vanadium redox flow battery. Background technique [0002] All-vanadium redox flow battery is a new type of green battery and a new type of large-scale electrochemical energy storage device, which has the characteristics of high capacity, wide application field and long cycle life. The main structure of the battery includes electrodes, plates, ion exchange membranes and electrode active materials. The diaphragm divides the battery into two half-cells, positive and negative. The electrode active materials undergo redox reactions on the electrode materials, and the current is derived from the plates. The exchange membrane conducts electricity through protons or anions, uses vanadium-containing solution as the positive and negative electrolytes, and completes electron exchange on the positive and negative electrodes to realize its charge and discharge. [0003] Among them, the vana...
