Abstract

The invention discloses a microemulsion flow battery electrolyte. The microemulsion flow battery electrolyte comprises a microemulsion used as an electrolyte solvent, a supporting electrolyte and an electrochemical active substance, wherein the microemulsion comprises a water phase (W phase), an oil phase (O phase) and a surfactant (S phase); a water-phase supporting electrolyte and an oil-phase supporting electrolyte are respectively added into the water phase and the oil phase to optimize the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte; specific electrochemical active substances are added into theoil phase, so that energy storage and release are completed in the electrochemical reaction process. The microemulsion flow battery electrolyte has the characteristics of high ionic conductivity andwide electrochemical window, and is beneficial to enhancing the energy density of the flow battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flow battery manufacturing, in particular to a microemulsion flow battery electrolyte and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Social development's demand for clean energy drives the growth of solar and wind power generation, but these two power generation methods are extremely dependent on time and weather. If the non-dispatchable renewable energy exceeds 20% of the power generation capacity without energy storage devices, it will lead to grid instability. Therefore, renewable energy generation needs to reduce its power output burden through other auxiliary methods, such as configuring on-demand Gas turbine peak power plants for power generation, etc. However, this method also increases environmental pollution and loss of natural resources; or stores electrical energy in the form of mechanical energy, chemical energy, or thermal energy during the peak production period. At present...
