In an acidic zinc-iron flow battery, the iron ions in the positive side have good solubility and reversible chemical stability, while zinc in the negative side is greatly affected by the pH. The neutral zinc-iron flow battery has attracted more attention due to its mild condition and low cost using a porous membrane.
The choice of low-cost metals (<USD$ 4 kg −1) is still limited to zinc, lead, iron, manganese, cadmium and chromium for redox/hybrid flow battery applications.Many of these metals are highly abundant in the earth''s crust (>10 ppm [16]) and annual production exceeds 4 million tons (2016) [17]..
Flow Battery - an overview
Critically different from the single zinc-based flow battery or the liquid-liquid flow battery cell stack, the zinc-based flow battery cell stack suffers from a relatively low reliability. The higher power normally means a higher working current density or a higher number ...
As a key component of redox flow battery stacks, bipolar plates significantly contribute to volume, weight and cost of stacks. Therefore, bipolar plates …
In this paper we deal with strategic considerations in designing the stack of a vanadium redox flow battery. The design of the stacks is complicated by the presence of a number of parameters that can influence the performance. For a given stack power, the cell size and the number of cells are inversely related. As the cell size increases, …

This paper reports a model-based quantitative study of an all-vanadium redox flow battery stack under conditions of local liquid supply shortage. A two-dimensional steady-state simulation was carried out for charge/discharge under galvanostatic operation, focusing on the impact of local fluid supply deficiency on electrode potential and side reactions.
Due to our compact design (up to 50% smaller than conventional stacks and only weighting between 14 and 20.6 kg), our stacks fit into every storage system design. This also makes maintenance work simple and stacks can be easily replaced if necessary. This
Flow fields are key competent to distribute electrolytes onto electrodes at maximum uniformity while maintaining a minimum pumping loss for redox flow batteries. Previously, efforts are mainly made to develop lab-scale flow fields (＜100 cm 2) with varying patterns, but due to the lack of reasonable scaling-up methods, a huge gap …
