Abstract

The invention provides a flow battery system and a capacity re-balance method for a flow battery. The flow battery system comprises a flow battery unit, a positive electrode electrolyte storage tank and a negative electrode electrolyte storage tank; the flow battery system also comprises a co-mixing equipartition module; the co-mixing equipartition module comprises an electrolyte co-mixing unit and an electrolyte equipartition unit, wherein the electrolyte co-mixing unit is connected with a positive electrode outlet, a negative electrode outlet, the inlet of the positive electrode electrolyte storage tank and the inlet of the negative electrode electrolyte storage tank separately for co-mixing the electrolyte in the positive electrode electrolyte storage tank and the negative electrode electrolyte storage tank; and the electrolyte equipartition unit is connected with the outlet of the positive electrode electrolyte storage tank, the outlet of the negative electrode electrolyte storage tank, a positive electrode inlet and a negative electrode inlet for performing equipartition on the electrolyte in the positive electrode electrolyte storage tank and the negative electrode electrolyte storage tank. By performing co-mixing and equipartition treatment on the positive and negative electrode electrolyte, the problem of capacity fading caused by imbalance of vanadium ion total quantity in the positive and negative electrode electrolyte and the problem of electrolyte volume imbalance caused by water migration are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flow batteries, in particular to a flow battery system and a method for rebalancing the capacity of the flow battery. Background technique [0002] The all-vanadium redox flow battery (referred to as "vanadium battery") is a kind of flow battery, and its principle is to use the redox reaction between vanadium ions in different valence states to store and utilize energy. Different from conventional chemical batteries such as lead-acid batteries and lithium batteries, the reactant electrolyte of the vanadium battery is stored independently in the external liquid storage tank. When charging and discharging, the electrolyte enters the stack through the acid-resistant liquid pump to complete the electrochemical reaction, and then Return to the liquid storage tank to form a closed circulation liquid flow loop. [0003] The electrolyte is the active material of the flow battery, which directly determines the en...
