“…One of the strategic projects for domestic supply is the Vanadium Recovery Project in Finland. 17 In addition to the current extensive industrial research on vanadium as a battery material, 19 growing attention to vanadium is attached to its oxide and oxo compounds for digital and analog computing. According to the 'Supply chain analysis and material demand forecast in strategic technologies and sectors in the EU -A foresight study' by the European Commission, 20 vanadium(V) pentoxide V 2 O 5 as a processed material can be used in the data transmission networks, where printed circuit boards, optoelectronic components, semiconductors, and sensor chips play a significant role.…”

“…Redox Flow Battery (RFB) is an energy storage technology with properties such as long life cycle, low degradation, excellent scalability, cost-effectiveness, high depth of discharge, and an architecture with power decoupled from energy [1], [2]. This characteristic has been exploited since their early developments in the previous decades [3], [4], and especially in the current global energy transition scenario, where they are one of the preferred solutions for grid…”

Membraneless micro redox flow batteries are an incipient technology that has been shown to extend some properties of traditional redox flow batteries. Due to their microfluidic scale and the absence of membrane, the fluid dynamics operation is critical in the electrical response. In this work, an electrical model is established to evaluate the influence on three battery performance metrics: steady-state power, power transient dynamics, and mixing and self-discharge losses. First, an equivalent electrical circuit, derived from a state-of-the-art regular battery equivalent circuit, is defined by studying the influence of flow changes on its impedances and source, aggregating it as a variable. Then, empirical data are used to demonstrate the proposed equations defining the variation of the electrical response relative to fluid dynamics, and their parameters are identified with grey box methods. The steady-state power model incorporates the interphase position, extending conventionally used redox flow batteries expressions, such as Faraday´s Law and Nersnt´s equation, for the membraneless analysis. A transient response model is built, which becomes effectively relevant in intermittent power applications (such as many renewable energy storage ones). Finally, mixing and self-discharge losses are evaluated with the variation state of charge at the outputs of the cell, using spectrophotometry measurements, and compared with flowmeter mixing values. This demonstrates that flow-rate values can provide a precise quantification of these losses. The electrical model with dependent parameters from the three fluid dynamics analyses can be used to evaluate the performance of micro membraneless redox flow batteries and their response to fluidic operation.INDEX TERMS Battery efficiency, electric equivalent model, grey box identification, microfluidics, redox flow battery.

“…In contrast to other types of batteries, energy and power can be scaled independently for RFBs, which is a great asset for stationary energy storage [2] . The all‐vanadium RFB represents the state‐of‐the art, having been commercially deployed at MWh scale [3] . However, all redox active species are based on a critical raw material, namely Vanadium [4] .…”

On the Tunability of Toxicity for Viologen‐Derivatives as Anolyte for Neutral Aqueous Organic Redox Flow Batteries

Viologen‐derivatives are the most widely used redox organic molecules for neutral pH negative electrolyte of redox flow batteries. However, the long‐established toxicity of the herbicide methyl‐viologen raises concern for deployment of viologen‐derivatives at large scale in flow batteries. Herein, we demonstrate the radically different cytotoxicity and toxicology of a series of viologen‐derivatives in in vitro assays using model organisms representative of human and environmental exposure, namely human lung carcinoma epithelial cell line (A549) and the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The results show that safe viologen derivatives can be molecularly engineered, representing a promising family of negolyte materials for neutral redox flow batteries.
