Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of neutral zinc-iron liquid flow batteries, and in particular to a neutral zinc-iron liquid flow battery and a method for preparing a negative electrode electrolyte thereof. Background Art

[0002] Neutral zinc-iron flow batteries (Zn-Fe) utilize abundant zinc and iron as active materials. They offer advantages such as low electrolyte cost, high energy density, and environmental friendliness, holding great promise for distributed, long-duration energy storage. Zinc / ferrocyanide batteries were first designed in 1978. Compared to all-vanadium flow batteries and zinc-bromine flow batteries, which are currently in the demonstration phase, alkaline Zn-Fe flow batteries have yet to achieve significant breakthroughs. A key technical bottleneck lies in the uneven deposition of zinc ions at the negative electrode during charge and discharge in neutral Zn-Fe flow batteries or stacks, which can easily form zinc dendrites and increase the production of irreversible zinc, thereby reducing reversible capacity. The deposited zinc is susceptible to hydrogen evolution corrosion with active water molecules in the desolvated shell, reducing coulombic efficiency and battery capacity. Furthermore, Zn ions diffuse to the positive electrode side and form precipitation with Fe(CN)64-, increasing the irreversible nature of the battery reaction. These issues reduce battery or stack stability and significantly increase maintenance costs.

[0003] The prior art discloses a neutral zinc-iron flow battery, which uses Fe(CN)6 4- 、High concentration salt solution (3moL -1 ) as the positive electrode electrolyte, ZnCl2, high concentration salt solution (3moL -1 ) as the negative electrode electrolyte, the battery system has better enhanced the battery performance by adding nicotinamide (NAM) additive, showing a high power density (185 mW cm −2 ), long cycle stability (400 cycles, 120 hours), enhanced resistance to self-discharge (capacity retention rate of 98.9% within 12 hours), and excellent battery efficiency (50 mA cm −2 energy efficiency is 70%).

[0004] Although the battery achieved good performance, it showed a low areal capacity (3.33 mAh / cm -2 ) and a shorter cycle life. This is partly due to the slow instantaneous nucleation rate of zinc ions by NAM molecules and the thin adsorption layer of NAM molecules, which makes hydrogen evolution corrosion still susceptible to occur. Furthermore, the zinc ions, after complexing with NAM, remain relatively small, migrating through the separator material to the positive electrode and reacting with ferrocyanide / ferrocyanide ions to form a precipitate. Therefore, it is necessary to screen for a new additive with a multifunctional specific group to effectively improve the surface capacity and cycle life of neutral new iron flow batteries from the electrolyte side. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a neutral zinc-iron liquid flow battery and a method for preparing a negative electrode electrolyte thereof, which solves the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: A neutral zinc-iron liquid flow battery, the neutral zinc-iron liquid flow battery comprising: a positive electrode electrolyte and a negative electrode electrolyte;
