There is increasing interest in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) for large scale-energy storage systems. Vanadium electrolytes which function as both the electrolyte and active material are highly important in terms of cost and performance.
Vanadium electrolyte, one of the key components of the VRFB system, plays a crucial role in determining the cost and performance of the battery, which are important factors in moving the VRFB towards greater reliability, economy, and market value.
The performance of vanadium electrolyte can be enhanced by suitable trace additives, which extend the life cycle of the battery and reduce the frequency of replacement. These additives favor green development and cost-saving while having no significant impact on post-recycling.
The result is that the concentration of vanadium ions in the electrolyte is usually lower than 2 mol/L, which seriously affects battery stability and energy storage .
Currently, commercial vanadium electrolytes are primarily H 2 SO 4 (2.5–3.5 mol/L) solutions dissolving 1.5–2 mol/L vanadium, with energy densities typically around 25 Wh/L, significantly lower than Zn mixed flow batteries, which can achieve energy densities up to 70 Wh/L [10, 20].
