Abstract

A hybrid zinc-nickel redox flow battery is in a way that a positive electrode is a NiO electrode, a negative electrode is a carbon felt or / and a zinc electrode, a positive electrolyte employs a ferrous cyanide ion alkali solution, and a negative electrolyte employs a zinc ion alkali solution; during charging, the positive electrode generate oxidization reaction from ferrous cyanide ion to cyanideiron ion, NiO gradually participates in electrochemical current formation reaction to generate NiOOH, and negative generates zinc ion deposition reaction; and during discharging, the positive electrode generates oxidization reaction from NiOOH to NiO, the cyanide iron ion gradually participates in electrochemical current formation reaction with consumption of NiOOh to generate ferrous cyanide ion,and the negative electrode generates elemental zinc dissolution reaction. Aiming at the problem of capacity limitation of a zinc-nickel redox flow battery positive electrode, the hybrid zinc-nickel redox flow battery is provided and is used for improving energy storage capacity of the zinc-nickel redox flow battery; and meanwhile, with the addition of the cyanide iron ion, the cycle stability ofthe zinc-nickel redox flow battery positive electrode can be improved.
