Flow batteries are a type of chemical energy storage where energy is stored in liquid electrolytes contained within external tanks. Unlike conventional batteries, the electrochemical reactions in flow batteries occur in the liquid state, which flows through a cell stack where the energy conversion takes place.
Other flow-type batteries include the zinc–cerium battery, the zinc–bromine battery, and the hydrogen–bromine battery. A membraneless battery relies on laminar flow in which two liquids are pumped through a channel, where they undergo electrochemical reactions to store or release energy. The solutions pass in parallel, with little mixing.
Flow battery design can be further classified into full flow, semi-flow, and membraneless. The fundamental difference between conventional and flow batteries is that energy is stored in the electrode material in conventional batteries, while in flow batteries it is stored in the electrolyte.
Flow batteries have certain technical advantages over conventional rechargeable batteries with solid electroactive materials, such as independent scaling of power (determined by the size of the stack) and of energy (determined by the size of the tanks), long cycle and calendar life, and potentially lower total cost of ownership,.
The flow battery is mainly composed of two parts: an energy system and a power system. In a flow battery, the energy is provided by the electrolyte in external vessels and is decoupled from the power.
The first iron-based flow battery was proposed in the 70s of the 20th century, with Fe (III)/Fe (II) and Cr (III)/Cr (II) serving as the positive and negative active components, respectively and HCl as the supporting electrolyte, which exhibited the battery voltage of 1.18 V.
It is the simplest diagnostic method that can be used in flow batteries. When the charging and discharging process are symmetric while recording the voltage, the cells are alternatively charged and discharged at constant current along with the Coulombically balanced half cells.
