技术领域 technical field

本发明涉及电能转化和存储技术领域,尤其是制造液流电池的技术方法。The invention relates to the technical field of electric energy conversion and storage, in particular to a technical method for manufacturing a liquid flow battery.

背景技术 Background technique

利用风能、太阳能等可再生能源发电是人类未来从自然界获取能量的重要途径之一。由于风能、太阳能随着昼夜变化其发电量产生显著变化,难于保持稳定的电能输出,需要和一定规模的电能储存装置相配合,构成完整的供电系统,保证持续稳定的电能供应。因此,开发电能转化效率高、储存容量大、经济性能好的储能系统成为发展可再生清洁能源的关键。在各种形式的储能装置中,例如蓄水储能电站、高速飞轮机械储能、冷热温差储能等,电化学储能具有能量转化效率高,可移动性强等特点,引起各国研究人员极大关注。不同形式的燃料电池技术逐渐成熟;免维护型铅酸蓄电池技术为汽车工业发展奠定基础。然而,由于前者主要以氢或甲醇作为燃料,装置和过程复杂,造价昂贵,难于被经济社会接受;后者使用大量的铅作为电池材料,存在大面积环境污染的隐患,难于在风能、太阳能发电系统作为大规模储能技术推广应用,寻求新的解决方案成为可再生能源开发过程的必然选择。液流电池系统具有电能储存与高效转化功能,使用寿命长、环保、安全的特点,易于和风能、太阳能发电相匹配,大幅度降低设备造价,为可再生能源利用提供技术保证。用于电网系统储能,可以避免抽水蓄能电站建设周期长,选址地理条件苛刻的缺点,适合于中等规模厂矿企业、宾馆饭店、政府部门的不间断电源使用,能够有效改善电网供电质量,完成电网的“移峰填谷”作用。Using renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy to generate electricity is one of the important ways for human beings to obtain energy from nature in the future. Since the power generation of wind energy and solar energy varies significantly with day and night, it is difficult to maintain a stable power output. It needs to cooperate with a certain scale of power storage devices to form a complete power supply system to ensure continuous and stable power supply. Therefore, the development of energy storage systems with high power conversion efficiency, large storage capacity, and good economic performance has become the key to the development of renewable and clean energy. Among various forms of energy storage devices, such as water storage energy storage power stations, high-speed flywheel mechanical energy storage, cold and hot temperature difference energy storage, etc., electrochemical energy storage has the characteristics of high energy conversion efficiency and strong mobility, which has attracted research by various countries. Personnel paid great attention. Different forms of fuel cell technologies are gradually maturing; maintenance-free lead-acid battery technology lays the foundation for the development of the automobile industry. However, because the former mainly uses hydrogen or methanol as fuel, the device and process are complicated, the cost is expensive, and it is difficult to be accepted by the economy and society; The system is popularized and applied as a large-scale energy storage technology, and seeking new solutions has become an inevitable choice in the development process of renewable energy. The liquid flow battery system has the functions of electric energy storage and high-efficiency conversion, long service life, environmental protection, and safety. It is easy to match with wind energy and solar power generation, greatly reduces equipment cost, and provides technical guarantee for the utilization of renewable energy. Used for energy storage in the power grid system, it can avoid the disadvantages of long construction period and harsh geographical conditions for pumped storage power stations. It is suitable for uninterruptible power supply of medium-scale factories and mines, hotels and restaurants, and government departments, and can effectively improve the power supply quality of the power grid. Complete the function of "shifting peaks and filling valleys" of the power grid.

全钒液流电池(Vanadium Redox Battery,VRB)是一种新型化学电源,通过不同价态的钒离子相互转化实现电能的储存与释放,使用同种元素组成电池系统,从原理上避免了正负半电池间不同种类活性物质相互渗透产生的交叉污染。使用溶解在电解液中不同价态钒离子作为电池正极和负极活性物质,正极电解液和负极电解液分开储存,从原理上避免电池储存过程自放电现象,适合于大规模储能过程应用。当风能、太阳能发电装置的功率超过额定输出功率时,通过对液流电池的充电,将电能转化为化学能储存在不同价态的离子中;当发电装置不能满足额定输出功率时,液流电池开始放电,把储存的化学能转化为电能,保证稳定电功率输出。由于液流电池对于风能、太阳能等可再生能源发电过程具有特殊重要意义,作为关键技术在国内外得到普遍关注(US Pat6,764,789;US Pat App 20040170893;中国专利公开号:1567618A;1598063A)。Vanadium Redox Battery (VRB) is a new type of chemical power source. It realizes the storage and release of electric energy through the mutual transformation of vanadium ions in different valence states. It uses the same element to form a battery system, which avoids positive and negative in principle. Cross-contamination caused by interpenetration of different types of active materials between half-cells. Using vanadium ions in different valence states dissolved in the electrolyte as the positive and negative active materials of the battery, the positive and negative electrolytes are stored separately, which in principle avoids self-discharge during battery storage, and is suitable for large-scale energy storage applications. When the power of wind energy and solar power generation devices exceeds the rated output power, the electric energy is converted into chemical energy and stored in ions of different valence states by charging the flow battery; when the power generation device cannot meet the rated output power, the flow battery Start discharging, convert the stored chemical energy into electrical energy, and ensure stable electrical power output. Because the flow battery is of special significance to the power generation process of renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy, it has received widespread attention as a key technology at home and abroad (US Pat6,764,789; US Pat App 20040170893; Chinese Patent Publication No.: 1567618A; 1598063A) .

为了研制开发大规模液流电池储能系统,围绕液流电池的电堆结构,已经进行了大量研究。通过电池堆内集流板设计,改变电解液流动分布,减小流动阻力损失(US Pat App20030087156)。现有的全钒液流电池中,通常使用多孔性立体结构的导电材料作为电极,如多孔金属、碳毡、石墨毡等,以便得到较高的电流密度。电解液平行流过多孔电极表面时,利用导流沟槽使电解液均匀分布,避免“偏流”现象发生,提高电池性能(US Pat6,475,661;US Pat App 20030087156)。由于电解液中的活性物质在多孔电极内部扩散较慢,仅仅处于表面层附近的电极材料提供氧化还原电化学反应界面,处于深层的电极材料很难发挥作用,降低多孔立体电极的实际使用效果。为了解决这一问题,本发明提出电解液直接穿过多孔电极的流动方式,代替原先电解液平行流过电极表面的方式,使电解液中的活性物质和立体电极进行充分接触,增大电化学反应界面面积,促进电化学氧化还原反应,提高液流电池电流密度。利用本发明的新型液流电池结构,可以实现电解液穿过多孔电极的流动过程,同时兼顾电解液在电极上的均匀分布,明显提高全钒液流电池中电能与化学能的转化和储存效率。In order to develop a large-scale flow battery energy storage system, a lot of research has been carried out around the stack structure of the flow battery. Through the design of the collector plate in the battery stack, the flow distribution of the electrolyte is changed to reduce the loss of flow resistance (US Pat App20030087156). In existing all-vanadium redox flow batteries, conductive materials with porous three-dimensional structures are usually used as electrodes, such as porous metals, carbon felts, graphite felts, etc., in order to obtain higher current densities. When the electrolyte flows through the surface of the porous electrode in parallel, the electrolyte is evenly distributed by using the diversion groove to avoid the phenomenon of "biased flow" and improve the performance of the battery (US Pat6, 475, 661; US Pat App 20030087156). Since the active substances in the electrolyte diffuse slowly inside the porous electrode, only the electrode material near the surface layer provides the redox electrochemical reaction interface, and the electrode material in the deep layer is difficult to play a role, reducing the actual use effect of the porous three-dimensional electrode. In order to solve this problem, the present invention proposes a flow mode in which the electrolyte directly passes through the porous electrode, instead of the original electrolyte flowing parallel to the surface of the electrode, so that the active material in the electrolyte can fully contact the three-dimensional electrode and increase the electrochemical efficiency. The reaction interface area can promote the electrochemical redox reaction and increase the current density of the flow battery. Utilizing the novel flow battery structure of the present invention, the flow process of the electrolyte through the porous electrode can be realized, and at the same time, the uniform distribution of the electrolyte on the electrode can be taken into account, and the conversion and storage efficiency of electrical energy and chemical energy in the all-vanadium redox flow battery can be significantly improved .

以下把本发明所述的液流电池结构详述如下:The structure of the flow battery of the present invention is described in detail below:

该全钒液流电池由若干组单电池串联组成,每个单电池由正极半电池和负极半电池组成。其中正极或负极半电池均由以下部件构成:离子交换膜、膜侧湍流板、膜侧导流板、集电板、电极衬板、电极、导流进料板以及进料隔板。The all-vanadium redox flow battery is composed of several groups of single cells connected in series, and each single cell is composed of a positive half-cell and a negative half-cell. The positive or negative half-cells are composed of the following components: ion exchange membrane, membrane side turbulence plate, membrane side deflector, collector plate, electrode liner, electrode, diversion feed plate and feed separator.

图2所示为阳极电解液流过正极半电池过程。阳极电解液依次流过进料隔板、导流进料板的导流暗槽、进入导流进料板后均匀分配到多孔电极表面不同部分、穿过电极衬板中央的多孔电极和集电板中央的筛网,进入膜侧导流板;膜侧导流板的不贯通凸起部分使阳极电解液在膜侧湍流板表面均匀分布,同时膜侧湍流板促进电解液和离子交换膜充分接触,经过折流后流到膜侧导流板的出口处,通过导流暗槽流出;依次通过膜侧湍流板、离子交换膜后进入负极半电池。阳极电解液在负极半电池中依次穿过膜侧湍流板、膜侧导流板、集电板、电极衬板、进料导流板、进料隔板,进入下一个正极半电池。Figure 2 shows the anolyte flow through the positive half-cell. The anolyte flows sequentially through the feed partition, the diversion dark groove of the diversion feed plate, after entering the diversion feed plate, it is evenly distributed to different parts of the surface of the porous electrode, and passes through the porous electrode in the center of the electrode liner and the current collector. The screen in the center of the plate enters the membrane side guide plate; the impermeable raised part of the membrane side guide plate makes the anolyte evenly distributed on the surface of the membrane side turbulence plate, and the membrane side turbulence plate promotes the electrolyte and the ion exchange membrane to fully After being in contact, it flows to the outlet of the deflector on the membrane side after being baffled, and flows out through the diversion dark groove; it passes through the turbulent plate on the membrane side and the ion exchange membrane in turn, and then enters the negative half-cell. In the negative half-cell, the anolyte passes through the membrane-side turbulence plate, the membrane-side deflector, the collector plate, the electrode liner, the feed deflector, and the feed separator in sequence, and enters the next positive half-cell.

阴极电解液从负极半电池依次穿过离子交换膜、膜侧湍流板、膜侧导流板、集电板、电极衬板、进料导流板、进料隔板,此后进入下一个负极半电池。The catholyte passes through the ion exchange membrane, the membrane side turbulence plate, the membrane side deflector, the collector plate, the electrode liner, the feed deflector, and the feed separator from the negative half cell, and then enters the next negative half cell. Battery.

阴极电解液在负极半电池中的流动方式类似于阳极电解液在正极半电池中的流动过程。The flow of catholyte in the negative half-cell is similar to the flow of anolyte in the positive half-cell.

阳极电解液和阴极电解液在阳极半电池中流过同一个电池部件时通过一端的边框实现彼此隔离,避免电解液混合后发生自放电现象;流过负极半电池中的同一个电池部件时同样使用边框完成彼此隔离。When the anolyte and catholyte flow through the same battery part in the anode half-cell, they are separated from each other by a frame at one end to avoid self-discharge after the electrolytes are mixed; they are also used when flowing through the same battery part in the negative half-cell Border finishes are isolated from each other.

所述膜侧湍流板两端加工出供电解液流过的通道,同时起电解液分布槽作用;中间部分连接有同种材料制成的筛网,引导电解液在离子交换膜表面均匀分布并促进电解液湍流形成。The two ends of the turbulent plate on the membrane side are processed with passages for the electrolyte to flow through, and at the same time it acts as an electrolyte distribution tank; the middle part is connected with a screen made of the same material, which guides the electrolyte to be evenly distributed on the surface of the ion exchange membrane. Promote the formation of electrolyte turbulence.

所述导流暗孔形成方法为膜侧湍流板2上的长方形槽和膜侧导流板3上的梳形槽区域上下对齐,上方的集电板4在该部位为一平板,三者共同构成阳极电解液流出口的导流暗槽。其中导流进料板上的梳形槽,凸出部分宽度为2~5毫米,凹陷部分宽度为2~5毫米。The method of forming the guide dark hole is that the rectangular groove on the membrane side turbulence plate 2 and the comb-shaped groove area on the membrane side guide plate 3 are aligned up and down, and the collector plate 4 above is a flat plate at this position, and the three together Constitutes the diversion trap for the anolyte outflow. Wherein the comb-shaped groove on the diversion feeding plate has a width of 2-5 millimeters at the protruding part, and a width of 2-5 millimeters at the concave part.

导流进料板6上的梳形槽区域和进料隔板7上的流入孔上下对齐,下方的电极衬板5在该部位为一平板,三者共同构成阳极电解液流入口的导流暗槽。The comb-shaped groove area on the diversion feed plate 6 and the inflow hole on the feed separator 7 are aligned up and down, and the electrode liner 5 below is a flat plate at this position, and the three together constitute the diversion of the anolyte inlet trough.

所述离子交换膜直接和膜侧湍流板接触,膜侧湍流板保护膜表面不受损伤,同时促进电解液湍动。膜侧湍流板、膜侧导流板、电极衬板、导流进料板、进料隔板均采用同种工程塑料材料,例如,聚乙烯、聚丙烯、聚氯乙稀、聚四氟乙烯,ABS等,具有适当的支撑刚度和柔韧性,保证彼此间紧密接触密封。膜侧湍流板、膜侧导流板、电极衬板、导流进料板、进料隔板可以分别制造,也可以彼此组合为一个整体部件。The ion exchange membrane is in direct contact with the turbulent plate on the membrane side, and the turbulent plate on the membrane side protects the surface of the membrane from damage and promotes the turbulence of the electrolyte at the same time. Membrane side turbulence plate, membrane side deflector, electrode liner, deflector feed plate, and feed separator are all made of the same engineering plastic material, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polytetrafluoroethylene , ABS, etc., have appropriate support rigidity and flexibility to ensure close contact and seal between each other. Membrane-side turbulence plate, membrane-side deflector, electrode liner, deflector feed plate, and feed partition can be manufactured separately, or can be combined with each other into an integral part.

所述电极安装在电极衬板中,由导流进料板和集电板上的导电筛网压紧后彼此紧密接触。The electrodes are installed in the electrode backing plate, and are in close contact with each other after being pressed by the conductive screen on the guide feeding plate and the collector plate.

所述集电板采用耐酸性、耐电化学氧化的导电材料制成,例如,导电石墨、导电工程塑料、316不锈钢等。The collector plate is made of acid-resistant and electrochemical oxidation-resistant conductive material, such as conductive graphite, conductive engineering plastics, 316 stainless steel, and the like.

所述所有部件由夹紧装置压紧密封,阻止电解液泄漏,实现阳极电解液和阴极电解液彼此隔绝。All the parts are compressed and sealed by the clamping device to prevent the leakage of the electrolyte and realize the isolation of the anolyte and the catholyte from each other.

所述结构组成氧化还原液流电堆的半电池,正极半电池和负极半电池串联后组成一个单电池,若干单电池依次串联组成氧化还原液流电池的电堆。The structure constitutes a half-cell of a redox flow battery, the positive half-cell and the negative half-cell are connected in series to form a single cell, and several single cells are sequentially connected in series to form a stack of a redox flow battery.

按照图1所示,使用本发明建立全钒液流电池,实现电能转化和储存。分别使用V4+/V5+和V3+/V2+钒离子作为氧化还原液流电池的阳极、阴极活性物质,电池中的正极半电池、负极半电池的电化学反应如下。As shown in Fig. 1, use the present invention to establish an all-vanadium redox flow battery to realize electric energy conversion and storage. Using V 4+ /V 5+ and V 3+ /V 2+ vanadium ions as the anode and cathode active materials of the redox flow battery respectively, the electrochemical reactions of the positive half-cell and negative half-cell in the battery are as follows.

正极反应Positive reaction

负极反应Negative reaction

全钒液流单电池端板截面积为145×145mm,阳极电解液为1000ml的0.9mol/LV4++2mol/LH2SO4水溶液,阴极电解液为0.9mol/LV3++2mol/LH2SO4水溶液,在40L/h的电解液循环流速下进行充放电实验,在室温下测定该氧化还原液流电池电堆性能。The cross-sectional area of the vanadium redox cell end plate is 145×145mm, the anolyte is 1000ml of 0.9mol/LV 4+ +2mol/LH 2 SO 4 aqueous solution, and the catholyte is 0.9mol/LV 3+ +2mol/LH 2 SO 4 aqueous solution, charge and discharge experiments were carried out at an electrolyte circulation flow rate of 40L/h, and the stack performance of the redox flow battery was measured at room temperature.

采用恒电压充电方式,保持电堆的充电电压为1.6V左右。随着充电过程进行,正极电解液中的4价钒离子失去电子转变为5价钒离子,负极电解液中的3价钒离子得到电子转变为2价钒离子,电池的电动势逐渐增加,导致充电电流随时间增加逐渐减小(图9)。The constant voltage charging method is adopted to keep the charging voltage of the stack at about 1.6V. As the charging process progresses, the 4-valent vanadium ions in the positive electrolyte lose electrons and transform into 5-valent vanadium ions, and the 3-valent vanadium ions in the negative electrolyte gain electrons and transform into 2-valent vanadium ions. The electromotive force of the battery gradually increases, resulting in charging The current gradually decreases with increasing time (Fig. 9).

采用恒电阻放电方式,电路上配置0.62Ω,10W的恒定负载。随着放电过程进行,正极电解液中的5价钒离子得到电子被还原为4价钒离子,负极电解液中的2价钒离子失去电子被氧化为3价钒离子,电池的端电压从1.0V开始逐渐下降,放电电流随时间增加逐渐减小(图10)。The constant resistance discharge method is adopted, and a constant load of 0.62Ω, 10W is configured on the circuit. As the discharge process proceeds, the 5-valent vanadium ions in the positive electrolyte get electrons and are reduced to 4-valent vanadium ions, and the 2-valent vanadium ions in the negative electrolyte lose electrons and are oxidized to 3-valent vanadium ions. The terminal voltage of the battery changes from 1.0 V begins to drop gradually, and the discharge current decreases gradually with time (Figure 10).

表1比较了在电解液不同循环速度下,电解液直接穿过多孔电极的流动方式,以及电解液在多孔电极一侧平行流动情况下的电池性能。由于电解液穿过多孔电极流动时,电解液中的活性物质和多孔电极内部能够进行充分接触,增大电化学反应界面面积,促进电化学氧化还原反应,在不同电解液循环速度下,对于相近的充电电压,平均充电电流得到明显提高,以此为基础计算全钒液流电池的能量效率提高20%左右。Table 1 compares the flow pattern of the electrolyte directly through the porous electrode and the battery performance when the electrolyte flows in parallel on one side of the porous electrode at different circulation rates of the electrolyte. Since the electrolyte flows through the porous electrode, the active material in the electrolyte can fully contact with the inside of the porous electrode, which increases the interface area of the electrochemical reaction and promotes the electrochemical redox reaction. The charging voltage and the average charging current are significantly improved, and based on this, the energy efficiency of the all-vanadium redox flow battery is increased by about 20%.
