Abstract

The invention discloses a vanadium redox battery and an electrolyte rebalancing method thereof. The vanadium redox battery comprises a battery stack, an anode electrolyte storage tank which is connected with the battery stack to form a first circulation loop, and a cathode electrolyte storage tank which is connected with the battery stack to form a second circulation loop, wherein the vanadium redox battery also comprises a low-valence vanadium ion solution supply device used for feeding a low-valence vanadium ion solution into the anode electrolyte storage tank, low-valence vanadium ions being divalent vanadium ions and / or trivalent vanadium ions; a high-valence vanadium ion solution recovery device used for recycling extra high-valence vanadium ion solution in the anode electrolyte storage tank, high-valenceions being tetravalent vanadium ions and / or pentavalent vanadium ions. In the vanadium redox battery, the low-valence vanadium ion solution supply device can feed low-valence vanadium ions into the anode electrolyte storage tank, so as to neutralize the pentavalent vanadium ions in the vanadium ions. The high-valence vanadium ion solution recovery device can recycle the high-valence vanadium ion solution left in the anode electrolyte, so as to lower the difference between the molar quantities of vanadium ions in the anode electrolyte and the cathode electrolyte.
