Definitions

  • the invention relates to an aqueous electrolyte and a redox flow battery containing this aqueous electrolyte.
  • Redox flow batteries also known as redox flow batteries (hereinafter also referred to as “RFB”), are used to store electrical energy based on electrochemical redox reactions.
  • a redox flow battery contains a chamber or two polarity-specific chambers (half cells) separated by a membrane, which are filled with a liquid and are fed by pumps from one or more separate tanks of any size.
  • the respective liquid contains water in which redox-active substances and an inorganic or organic salt (lead additive) are dissolved.
  • the main additive can itself be redox-active.
  • RFBs are particularly suitable as stationary energy storage devices for various performance and capacities
  • RFBs are electrochemical energy stores.
  • the substances required for setting the potential on the electrodes are liquid, dissolved or also in
  • Redox-active species appearing in particle form which are transferred to their respective other redox stage during charging or discharging in an electrochemical reactor.
  • electrolyte solutions catholyte, anolyte
  • Anode and cathode compartments are separated in the reactor by a semipermeable membrane, which usually shows a high selectivity for protons and / or which is a size exclusion membrane.
  • a semipermeable membrane which usually shows a high selectivity for protons and / or which is a size exclusion membrane.
  • RFB The amount of energy that can be stored in an RFB is directly proportional to the size of the storage tanks.
  • the power that can be extracted is a function of the size of the electrochemical reactor.
  • RFBs have a complex system technology that roughly corresponds to that of a fuel cell. Usual sizes of the individual reactors range from approximately 1 to 100 kW.
  • the reactors can be combined very easily in a modular manner, and the tank size can be adjusted almost as desired.
  • a wide variety of redox-active chemical compounds have already been proposed for use in rechargeable batteries or batteries, such as RFB.
  • RFBs are already known which contain 2, 2, 6, 6-tetrasubstituted 1-piperidinyloxy compounds as the catholyte.
  • Such RFB are also described, for example, in WO 2014/026728 A1, WO 2017/084749 A1 and WO 2017/025177 A1.
  • Further RFBs containing 2,2,6,6-tetrasubstituted 1-piperidinyloxy compounds in the electrolyte are disclosed in WO 2018/032003 A1 and US 2018/0072669 A1.
  • V-RFB vanadium RFB
  • V-RFBs are therefore limited in their application temperature or complex cooling is required. Special applications, e.g. As a replacement for diesel generators on Indian cell phone masts, V-RFBs are prevented in this way.
  • special HCI-containing electrolytes were developed, which are more temperature-stable and thus enable temperatures up to approx. 45 ° C, in exceptional cases even up to 60 ° C (see US 2012/0077067 A1). However, these electrolytes are extremely corrosive.
  • Other RFB systems have not yet been described at these comparatively high temperatures. In particular, RFBs that contain organic redox-active compounds have so far not been used at these high temperatures.
  • Electrolytes leads, which surprisingly have a high stability at elevated temperatures.
  • the use of these redox-active compounds or this combination of redox-active compounds with additives allows the production of aqueous electrolytes which are stable at elevated temperatures.
  • these electrolytes allow the production of RFB that can be operated at elevated temperatures. Higher temperatures of the electrolyte can occur when operating the RFB in environments with elevated temperatures,
  • the use of the electrolytes according to the invention makes RFBs with organic redox-active compounds accessible for “high-temperature” use. In this way, new fields of application for RFB can be opened up without the need for additional cooling.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an aqueous electrolyte containing selected redox-active organic compounds, which has sufficient stability for the operation of batteries or accumulators even at elevated temperatures.
