Abstract

The invention provides a semi-solid-state zinc nickel flow cell. A single cell is composed of positive and negative electrode end plates, a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a diaphragm, fluid storage tanks, a pipeline and a pump, wherein the positive electrode is a porous electrode, the negative electrode is a deposition type electrode, an active material-nickelous hydroxide in the positive electrode is suspended and dispersed in a positive electrode electrolyte, and a negative electrode electrolyte is a high-consistency alkaline zincate solution. In the charging process, the electrolytes are respectively conveyed to the positive electrode and the negative electrode from the fluid storage tanks by the pump, and the active material-nickelous hydroxide in the positive electrode electrolyte is oxidized into nickel oxide hydroxide; zinc ions in the negative electrode electrolyte is directly deposited in the negative electrode in a zinc elementary substance form. In the discharging process, the nickel oxide hydroxide in the positive electrode fluid storage tank is reduced to nickel hydroxide; a zinc elementary substance is oxidized to zinc ions which return to the negative electrode fluid storage tank by the pump. According to the semi-solid-state zinc nickel flow cell disclosed by the invention, a solid active material-nickel hydroxide involving in the reaction with the positive electrode is stored in the corresponding electrolyte, so that the power and energy can be singly designed, and the cell has the characteristics of high energy storage capacity, high safety, long circulation service life, low cost and simple structure and manufacturing process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a zinc-nickel flow battery, in particular to a semi-solid zinc-nickel flow battery system. technical background [0002] In recent years, with the change of global energy and climate, the efficient use of clean energy has been put on the agenda, but the development and utilization of new energy is facing a common problem is the smooth and stable output of power, so it is equipped with corresponding large-scale energy storage equipment is very necessary. [0003] Flow batteries have rapidly become a research hotspot in energy storage technology due to their high energy storage capacity, high charge and discharge efficiency, safety and reliability, long operating cycle life, and environmental friendliness. Since Thaller proposed the concept of flow battery in 1974, the more mature systems include: zinc-bromine system, sodium polysulfide / bromine system and all-vanadium system. However, the above-mentioned flow batteries have pro...
