Aluminium–air batteries (Al–air batteries) produce electricity from the reaction of oxygen in the air with aluminium. They have one of the highest energy densities of all batteries, but they are not widely used because of problems with high anode cost and byproduct removal when using traditional electrolytes.
Aluminum in an Al-air battery (AAB) is attractive due to its light weight, wide availability at low cost, and safety. Electrochemical equivalence of aluminum allows for higher charge transfer per ion compared to lithium and other monovalent ions.
the aluminum roller mill (R-2019), and the refined product is stored in tank (S-210). Then it is design later in stream 20. which the electrolyte for the aluminum air battery is produced. The process starts with four liquid storage tanks full of aluminum trichloride (T-201), potassium chloride (T-202), and sodium chloride (T-203).
Up to now, several different types of metal–air batteries, such as lithium (Li)–air, sodium (Na)–air, potassium (K)–air, zinc (Zn)–air, magnesium (Mg)–air, and aluminum (Al)–air batteries have been extensively studied.
Lithium-air and zinc-air cells are examples being pursued strongly for both primary and secondary applications. Aluminum's light weight, safety, ready availability, and high energy density via three-electron transfer make it an obvious candidate to consider in the pursuit of realizing metal-air battery systems.
