Abstract

The invention discloses a restore method of a liquid-state metal battery. The restore method comprises the steps of 1) stopping working when a fault occurs in the battery; 2) increasing a working temperature of the battery, and allowing the battery to stand; 3) performing constant-voltage charging on the battery, wherein a charging voltage is a cutoff voltage when the battery normally works; 4) performing constant-current discharging on the battery; 5) performing constant-current charging on the battery until the battery is charged fully after discharging is ended; 6) forwarding to the step 4)and circulating for many times; 7) performing constant-current discharging on the battery; 8) performing constant-current charging on the battery until the battery is charged fully after dischargingis ended; and 9) forwarding to the step 7) and circulating for many times, wherein the restore of the battery is completed when the single-circle coulombic efficiency of the battery is larger than orequal to 90%. The performance of the liquid-state metal battery after being restored by the method is not obviously reduced, and the liquid-state metal battery still can continue to normally use. By the method, other restore devices are not needed, restore can be completed only by directly changing a temperature and a working parameter of the battery, the method is simple and practical, and the restore cost is low.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of energy storage, and relates to a repair method for a liquid metal battery. Background technique [0002] Liquid metal battery is an emerging battery energy storage technology for grid-level energy storage applications. Because of its low material cost, simple manufacturing process, and easy capacity expansion, it has attracted extensive attention in the field of energy storage technology research and energy investment. . However, although liquid metal batteries have made great progress in the field of monomer and stack technology, there are still many problems to be solved. Among them, the lack of an effective and reasonable battery repair technology is a major bottleneck restricting its development. . [0003] The most common failure mode of liquid metal batteries is short circuit or micro-short circuit during operation. Generally speaking, except for a small number of batteries that are short-circuit...
