Embodiment 1

[0022] Cut out a carbon felt with a thickness of 6 mm and soak it in a 0.5 mol / L potassium persulfate aqueous solution at 80 ° C. After 12 hours, take out the electrode and wash it repeatedly with water, and dry it for later use.

[0023] The prepared electrode material is used as positive and negative electrodes, the bipolar plate is graphite plate, and the ion exchange membrane is Nafion membrane produced by DuPont Company, with an effective area of ​​48cm 2 , assembled alkaline zinc-iron flow battery with a current density of 80mA / cm 2 . Among them, the positive electrode electrolyte contains ferrocyanide ion (Fe(CN) 6 4- ) alkaline solution, wherein the concentration of ferrocyanide ion is 1mol L -1 , the concentration of hydroxide ions is 3mol / L; the negative electrode electrolyte is an alkaline solution containing zincate ions, and the concentration of zincate ions is 0.5mol L -1 , the concentration of hydroxide ions is 3mol / L; the coulombic efficiency (CE) of the as...

Embodiment 2

[0030] Embodiment 2 (soaking time is non-optimal condition)

[0031] Compared with Example 1, the soaking time was changed to 0.2h, and other conditions were unchanged. After testing, the coulombic efficiency of the battery is 94.7%, the voltage efficiency is 85.2%, and the energy efficiency is 80.7%. Battery life is 80 cycles.

[0032] Compared with Comparative Example 1, the coulombic efficiency, energy efficiency and cycle stability of the alkaline system zinc-iron flow battery of the electrode material soaked at a non-optimal time all have a certain improvement, but it is different from that of the present invention in Example 1. There is still a small gap compared to the preferred soaking time.

Embodiment 3

[0033] Embodiment 3 (solution concentration is non-preferred condition)

[0034] Compared with Example 1, the concentration of potassium persulfate was changed to 0.1mol / L, and other conditions were unchanged. After testing, the coulombic efficiency of the battery is 96.4%, the voltage efficiency is 87.0%, and the energy efficiency is 83.9%. Battery life is 80 cycles.

[0035] Compared with Comparative Example 1, the coulombic efficiency, energy efficiency and cycle stability of the alkaline system zinc-iron flow battery of the electrode material processed at the non-optimal solution concentration have been improved to a certain extent, but it is different from that of the present invention in Example 1. There is still a small gap compared with the preferred soaking time.
