Abstract

The invention discloses a solar-assisted seawater cell and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of photovoltaic conversion and energy. The method comprises the steps of 1) providinga negative electrode material for storing sites for metal ions in seawater by taking a coordination crystal as a main, and showing reversible charge-discharge characteristic of a secondary battery; 2)employing an N-type semiconductor which can be used for generating electron-hole pairs under solar simulation as a photo-anode material for providing electrons; and 3) taking a seawater solution withdissolved oxygen larger than or equal to 1ppm and sodium chloride larger than or equal to 0.35% as an electrolyte used for balancing polarization of ion concentration in an electrode brought by the power generation process and stabilizing an environment of the power generation device. When illumination is withdrawn, the ions stored in the sites are released by reaction of the dissolved oxygen andthe coordination crystal in the seawater, so that the recycling of the coordination crystal is achieved; and the solar-assisted seawater cell takes sunlight as an energy unique input source, is simple in scientific principle and low in construction cost, is safe and stable, is friendly to the environment and easy to promote and has practicality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of photoelectric conversion and energy, in particular to a solar-assisted seawater battery and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] With the increasing human demand for fossil energy, the crisis of terrestrial fossil energy has become a global problem that needs to be resolved urgently. Therefore, the research on renewable energy has made great progress in recent years. Among them, the ocean, as the most abundant resource on the earth, has attracted the attention of researchers. Since Volt discovered in 1977 that zinc plates and silver plates were immersed in salt water and connected with wires to generate current, the prototype of seawater batteries came into being. Existing seawater batteries mainly adopt the working principle of primary batteries. The anode is active wave metal; the cathode is an electrode of silver chloride, cuprous chloride, or lead chloride. This type of seawater battery is char...
