In the case of sealed systems with internal rebalancing, the balance can be fully restored so that in principal, steady-state operation can be achieved. Development of sealed flow batteries with internal rebalancing is thus an important step toward the ideal "maintenance-free" operation.
Abstract Principles of sealed iron flow batteries are introduced and a semi-empirical model that incorporates the hydrogen evolution reaction and electrolyte rebalancing is developed. Hydrogen generation rates are measured using pressure measurements in sealed vessels.
To address these challenges, a design involving a hydraulic shunt tube connecting the two electrolyte tanks was proposed to achieve automatic electrolyte rebalancing for VRFB capacity recovery without the need for periodic remixing or additional formation charge processes [17, 31].
Conclusions Hydrogen side-reactions lead to an electrolyte imbalance in all-iron flow batteries, and this occurs simultaneously for iron and hydrogen species. Fortunately, this problem can be corrected using an appropriate rebalancing system.
This study introduces an innovative electrolyte-rebalancing technique named asymmetric auto-rebalancing (AAR) to achieve high capacity retention and high efficiency of VRFBs during long-term operation. Three VRFBs—one each without rebalancing (NR), with auto-rebalancing (AR), and with AAR—were prepared for a performance comparison.
As with some other aqueous flow batteries, they can experience significant rates of hydrogen generation (ca. 1–10% of the nominal operating current density). This hydrogen evolution represents a loss of protons from the electrolyte and it also leads to a chemical imbalance with each charge-discharge cycle.
