Problems solved by technology

When the impurity concentration in the electrolyte is high, it will bring the following problems: (1) There is a competitive reaction between impurity ions and vanadium ions, reducing battery efficiency
(2) In the positive electrode chamber, impurity ions are deposited on the graphite felt electrode, which blocks the gaps of the graphite felt and reduces the specific surface area of ​​the graphite felt, thereby affecting the charge and discharge efficiency
(3) In the negative electrode chamber, impurity ions will affect the hydrogen evolution overpotential, and gas production will affect the pressure balance inside the battery
(4) Impurity ions reduce the life of the proton exchange membrane
(5) Impurity ions affect the stability of vanadium ions, resulting in premature aging of the electrolyte
The main problem that this patent exists is: no specific reduction process is given, reducing V in hydrogen 2 o 5 Preparation V 2 o 4 The powder is easy to be over-reduced or under-reduced, and it needs precise control to realize it. The measures for accurately controlling the reduction are not listed in the patent; the purity is low; Chinese patents CN101880059A and CN102557134A disclose a process for producing high-purity vanadium trioxide Fluidized reduction furnace and reduction method, by adding heat transfer internal components in the fluidized bed, to achieve enhanced heat transfer; using cyclone preheating to improve energy utilization, to achieve V 2 o 3 Efficient preparation of
The method described in these two patents is only applicable to V 2 o 3 It is not suitable for the preparation of low-valent vanadium oxides in other valence states, because the system does not have the function of precisely controlling the reduction

Abstract

The invention discloses a system and method of high purity vanadium electrolyte preparation. Vanadium oxytrichloride as a raw material is precipitated by an ammonium salt, the precipitates are subjected to liquid reduction so that a low valent vanadium oxide is produced, a sulfuric acid solution and clean water are added into the low valent vanadium oxide and the mixture is treated under conditions of supersonic wave-assisted dissolution and activation at a low temperature so that a high purity vanadium electrolyte is formed. Through heat exchange between an ammonium salt and reduction tail gas and between a reduction product and fluidized nitrogen, heat is efficiently used. The ammonia gas in the reduction tail gas is recovered and used for vanadium precipitation so that ammonia gas recycling is realized. An inner member is arranged in a reduction fluidized bed so that accurate control of a reduction product valence is realized. Through use of supersonic wave-assisted dissolution and activation, the vanadium electrolyte is prepared at a low temperature and electrolyte activity is greatly improved. The method has the advantages of short process, high efficiency, cleaness and stable product quality, is suitable for large scale industrial production and has good economic benefits and social benefits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the fields of energy and chemical industry, and in particular relates to a system and method for preparing high-purity vanadium electrolyte. Background technique [0002] Traditional fossil fuels have always been the main source of energy. Due to long-term mining and extensive use, they are facing the problem of resource depletion, and also bring serious environmental pollution. The development and utilization of clean and renewable energy such as wind energy, water energy, solar energy, and tidal energy has gradually attracted the attention of human society. However, renewable energy is inherently intermittent, and existing energy management systems are difficult to use effectively. [0003] Energy storage technology is one of the ways to solve such problems. Among various energy storage systems, vanadium redox flow battery (VRB) is an attractive energy storage device. The biggest advantage of VRB is its flexibility - the p...
