Abstract

The invention relates to a method for improving the stability of a high-concentration negative electrode electrolyte during the operation of an all-vanadium redox flow battery. A soluble alkaline substance is at least one in the group consisting of ammonia water, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide, lithium hydroxide and rubidium hydroxide. The high-concentration negative electrode electrolyte is a sulfuric acid aqueous solution of divalent and / or trivalent vanadium, the vanadium ion concentration is 1.6-4 mol / L, and the sulfuric acid concentration is 0.5-3 mol / L. A stabilizer for improving the stability of the high-concentration negative electrode electrolyte used in the present invention can restore the H+ concentration in the high-concentration negative electrode electrolyte to a normal level in a short time, and the stability of the high-concentration negative electrode electrolyte is improved. The sources of raw materials used in the present invention are wide, the price is low, the process operation is simple, the reaction speed is controllable, and the long-term high-efficiency stable operation of the battery can be ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the application of an electrolytic solution in an all-vanadium redox flow battery. Background technique [0002] With the depletion of fossil energy all over the world and the continuous enhancement of people's awareness of environmental protection, renewable energy power generation technology is more and more popular. Renewable energy mainly includes wind energy, solar energy, biomass energy, ocean energy, etc., which are usually converted into electrical energy for use. These renewable energy power generation is obviously discontinuous and unstable due to the influence of geographical and meteorological conditions. In order to smooth and stabilize the power generation output of renewable energy, solve the time difference between power generation and power consumption, and improve power quality and grid reliability, it is necessary to develop high-efficiency energy storage technology. Vanadium redox flow battery (VFB) has be...
