Problems solved by technology

However, the vanadyl sulfate solution with high concentration is easy to precipitate vanadium sulfate crystals in the positive electrode area during the charging and discharging process of the battery. Due to the existence of crystals, the flow field in the battery is blocked, thus greatly reducing the energy efficiency of the battery.
On the other hand, since the conductive diaphragm on the battery electrode is an activated proton exchange membrane, vanadium ions will permeate on the proton exchange membrane during the charge and discharge process of the vanadium battery, which further reduces the energy consumption of the vanadium battery. efficiency

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing an electrolyte for a storage battery, in particular to a method for preparing an electrolyte for a vanadium redox flow battery. Background technique [0002] Since Marria Kazacos of the University of New South Wales in Australia proposed the use of vanadyl sulfate as the active material of the battery in 1985, after more than ten years of research and development, the vanadium redox flow battery technology has approached maturity. In recent years, vanadium redox flow cell has received great attention. The main reason is that this battery system has adjustable battery capacity, no solid-phase reaction, and no change in the structure and form of electrode materials. It is an ideal power storage device in wind power generation and solar power generation systems due to its low price, high cycle life, high safety and high energy efficiency. The vanadium battery uses vanadyl sulfate solution as the electrolyte...
