A slurry based lithium-ion flow battery is a type of battery that uses a liquid slurry of lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4 or LFP) as its electrolyte. This battery features a serpentine flow field and a porous carbon felt electrode design. The schematic illustration shows an example of this concept using LFP slurry.
A slurry based lithium-ion flow battery is proposed in this work, featuring a serpentine flow field and a stationary porous carbon felt current collector. This design aims to improve the design flexibility by decoupling the electrode thickness and flow resistance.
The lithium-extraction redox flow battery (LE-RFB) extracts dissolved lithium with a purity of 93.5% from simulated seawater, corresponding to a high Li/Mg selectivity factor of about 500.000:1. Benefiting from a low operating voltage, 1 g of lithium is extracted with only 2.5 Wh of energy consumption. Copyright © 2022 American Chemical Society
Several manufacturers are now offering flow batteries in the required scale. This technology has low variable costs (€/kWh) and uses a wider SoC range. On the other hand, efficiency is lower than for the LiB and fixed costs (€/kW) are rather high.
In a slurry based flow battery, the flow of slurry along the carbon felt surface prevents particles from accumulating and forming a thick filter cake. This minimizes the risk of fouling and clogging, allowing for a relatively stable operation.
