Abstract

The invention relates to a copper removal method for a vanadyl sulfate electrolyte of an all-vanadium redox flow battery. The vanadyl sulfate electrolyte is a solution by vanadium slag and stone coalleaching, re-extraction and resin analysis, after multi-stage counter-current extraction and impurity removal, the vanadyl sulfate concentration is (0.5-2.0)mol / L, and copper content is larger than 50mg / L. The copper removal method comprises the following steps of adjusting pH of a vanadyl sulfate solution to be 4.0-5.5 with an alkali compound, and adding a metal replacement agent; adding hydrogenperoxide, performing standing and filtering, and adding a reducing agent into a filtering liquid; extracting the solution by P204:TBT:sulfonated kerosene extraction agent, and washing a vanadium-carried organic phase with deionized water after two-phase separation; and re-extracting the vanadium-carried organic phase with a sulfuric acid solution, and obtaining copper-removed vanadyl sulfate electrolyte after two-phase separation. With the copper removal method for the vanadyl sulfate electrolyte, provided by the invention, impurity copper contained in the vanadyl sulfate electrolyte can be removed, and the comprehensive electrical performance of the electrolyte can be effectively improved. The method is simple and reliable in process, good in copper removal effect and low in production cost, and the obtained reaction copper slag can be recycled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for removing copper from a battery electrolyte, in particular to a method for removing copper from a vanadyl sulfate electrolyte of an all-vanadium redox flow battery. Background technique [0002] The all-vanadium redox flow battery is a kind of electrical energy storage and conversion device that has received widespread attention. It occupies a small area and has no potential safety hazards of inflammability and explosion. The capacity of the battery depends on the amount of electrolyte and the concentration of vanadium ions. The capacity can be adjusted arbitrarily. The electrolyte can be placed separately from the battery. The battery has a long service life, good safety performance, high reliability, and can be charged and discharged quickly. There are great prospects for development in aspects such as cutting valleys and flat peaks. Since the all-vanadium redox flow battery adopts liquid-liquid chemical reaction...
