Alkaline zinc-based flow batteries are well suitable for stationary energy storage applications, since they feature the advantages of high safety, high cell voltage and low cost. Currently, many alkaline zinc-based flow batteries have been proposed and developed, e.g., the alkaline zinc-iron flow battery and alkaline zinc—nickel flow battery.
Zinc-based hybrid flow batteries are one of the most promising systems for medium- to large-scale energy storage applications, with particular advantages in terms of cost, cell voltage and energy density. Several of these systems are amongst the few flow battery chemistries that have been scaled up and commercialized.
Among the above-mentioned flow batteries, the zinc-based flow batteries that leverage the plating-stripping process of the zinc redox couples in the anode are very promising for distributed energy storage because of their attractive features of high safety, high energy density, and low cost .
Zinc-air flow batteries Small, primary zinc-air button-type batteries have been commercially available for a number of years and larger prismatic and cylindrical cells have also been developed ( Chakkaravarthy et al., 1981, Linden and Reddy, 2002 ). Rechargeable flow batteries are in the early stage of development.
With super high energy density, long cycling life, and a simple structure, a ZISFB becomes a very promising candidate for large scale energy storage and even for power batteries. A zinc–iodine single flow battery (ZISFB) with super high energy density, efficiency and stability was designed and presented for the first time.
Currently, the flow battery can be divided into traditional flow batteries such as vanadium flow batteries, zinc-based flow batteries, and iron-chromium flow batteries, and new flow battery systems such as organic-based flow batteries, which hold great promise for energy storage applications.
