Toward a Low-Cost Alkaline Zinc-Iron Flow Battery with a Polybenzimidazole Custom Membrane for Stationary Energy Storage
Open accessAbstract
Alkaline zinc-iron flow battery is a promising technology for electrochemical energy storage. In this study, we present a high-performance alkaline zinc-iron flow battery in combination with a self-made, low-cost membrane with high mechanical stability and a 3D porous carbon felt electrode. The membrane could provide high hydroxyl ion conductivity while resisting zinc dendrites well owing to its high mechanical stability. The 3D porous carbon felt could serve as a guidance for the zinc stripping/plating, which can effectively suppress zinc dendrite/accumulation as well. Thus this battery demonstrates a coulombic efficiency of 99.5% and an energy efficiency of 82.8% at 160 mA cm −2 , which is the highest value among recently reported flow battery systems. The battery can stably run for more than 500 cycles, showing very good stability. Most importantly, the practicability of this battery is confirmed by assembling a kilowatt cell stack with capital cost under $90/kWh.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
