Redox flow batteries offer interesting options for electrochemical energy storage and also for heat-to power conversion. In the first part of the talk, we will discuss the possibilities offered by organic redox couples in aqueous solutions [1], report some recent examples from our lab, and describe our collaborative efforts for the computational screening of organic redox couples within CompBat H2020-project.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>In the second part of the talk, we shall introduce the concept of solid boosters for flow batteries. The advantage of such systems is that they allow relaxing the requirement for high solubility of the redox couple, therefore significantly increasing the number of redox couples available for flow batteries. Wang et al. in 2013 [2] first suggested this concept, where the electrolyte tank is filled with solid redox-active mm-sized beads forming a backed-bed type system.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Firstly, the redox mediator is charged in the electrochemical cell and pumped back into the storage tank. The charge is then transferred into the solid material in a chemical reaction with the mediator, similarly to \u201cmolecular wiring\u201d used, for example, in electrochemical enzymatic glucose sensors [3]. The redox mediator can then be further charged in the electrochemical cell. We and others have shown that, if the redox potentials of the solid and soluble materials match well enough, a significant amount of the charge storage capacity of the solid materials can be used with a single mediator. [4-7] Since charge storage density is much higher in solids, a lower concentration of the mediators can be used, given that the capacity of the flow battery boosted with solids is mostly due to the solid only.<\/span><\/p>\n
