Background
Renewable energy sources such as wind energy, solar energy and the like have the characteristics of discontinuity and instability, and the characteristics can cause impact on a power grid in the grid connection process, so that the safe and stable operation of the power grid is influenced. The energy storage technology can ensure the efficient and stable operation of renewable energy power generation grid connection. Energy storage technologies are mainly classified into two categories, physical energy storage and chemical energy storage. Redox flow batteries suitable for large-scale, high-capacity energy storage in chemical energy storage have received much attention because of their advantages of independent battery power and capacity, rapid response, simple structure, and easy design. The zinc-bromine flow battery, as one of the redox flow batteries, has the advantages of high open-circuit voltage (1.85V), high theoretical energy density (435Wh/Kg), low price of electrolyte and diaphragm, and the like besides the advantages. These advantages also make it more competitive with other flow batteries. The zinc-bromine flow battery has the problem of accumulation of negative zinc in the charging and discharging operation process, the battery performance is attenuated due to the fact that the polarization of the battery is increased due to the accumulation of the zinc, the service life of the battery is influenced, and even dendritic crystals can be formed under severe conditions to cause short circuit failure of the battery. Therefore, the problem of accumulation of zinc in the negative electrode is solved, and the method plays an important role in prolonging the service life of the battery and ensuring the stable operation of the battery.
The invention content is as follows:
the invention aims to solve the problems and provides a method for recovering the performance of a zinc-bromine flow battery, which is used for recovering the performance of the battery and prolonging the service life of the battery under the condition of the performance attenuation of the battery by mixing positive and negative electrolytes to directly react accumulated zinc and bromine to generate zinc bromide.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the technical scheme that:
a method for restoring the performance of Zn-Br single-flow battery features that the positive electrode electrolyte is filled in the positive cavity of said battery, the negative electrode electrolyte stored in negative electrode storage tank flows cyclically between negative electrode storage tank and negative electrode cavity of said battery, and after the battery is operated for a certain time, the positive electrode electrolyte in positive electrode cavity is introduced to negative electrode storage tank to mix with it, and part of the mixture is filled in positive electrode cavity again.
After the battery runs for a period of time, when the energy efficiency of the battery is attenuated by 5-10%, the positive electrolyte and the negative electrolyte are mixed.
After the battery runs for a period of time, the anode cavity is communicated with the cathode storage tank through a pipeline, so that electrolyte in the cathode storage tank circularly flows between the cathode storage tank and the anode cavity of the battery, the performance of the battery is recovered by mixing the anode electrolyte and the cathode electrolyte, and the open-circuit voltage of the battery is reduced to 0V under the condition of mutual mixing cut-off.
The same electrolyte with the same composition is used as the positive electrolyte and the negative electrolyte of the zinc-bromine flow battery.
The beneficial results of the invention are as follows:
the invention provides a method for recovering the performance of a zinc-bromine flow battery when the performance of the zinc-bromine flow battery is attenuated, which solves the problem of efficiency attenuation in the operation process of the zinc-bromine flow battery and prolongs the service life of the battery.

Detailed Description
The following examples are further illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
Example 1
With 2MZnBr2The circulation performance experiment of the zinc-bromine flow battery is carried out by taking +3MKCl +0.4MMEP as electrolyte, the electrode is carbon felt, the flow rate of the electrolyte is 60ml/min, and the current density is 40mA/cm2. And mixing the electrolytes when the energy efficiency of the battery is reduced. The experimental result shows that the battery runs for 220 cycles, the energy efficiency of the battery is attenuated by 8%, the electrolytes of the positive electrode and the negative electrode are mixed until the open circuit voltage of the battery is 0V, the battery is continuously charged and discharged, and the performance of the battery is recovered to the initial level.
Comparative example
With 2MZnBr2The circulation performance experiment of the zinc-bromine flow battery is carried out by taking +3MKCl +0.4MMEP as electrolyte, the electrode is carbon felt, the flow rate of the electrolyte is 60ml/min, and the current density is 40mA/cm2. The electrolyte intermixing is not performed when the energy efficiency of the battery decays. As a result of experiments, it was found that the deterioration of the energy efficiency of the battery was gradually increased as the number of cycles was increased without the intermixing of the electrolytes.
