Commercial electrolyte for vanadium flow batteries is modified by dilution with sulfuric and phosphoric acid so that series of electrolytes with total vanadium, total sulfate, and phosphate concentrations in the range from 1.4 to 1.7 m, 3.8 to 4.7 m, and 0.05 to 0.1 m, respectively, are prepared.
The ideal electrolyte for vanadium batteries needs to ensure the stability of high-concentration vanadium ions in different oxidation states over a wide temperature range. A key issue to be resolved is to improve the stability of V 5+ at high temperatures (50 °C) and V 3+ at low temperatures (−5 °C).
In conclusion, the concentration of vanadium, sulfuric acid and impurities in the vanadium electrolyte are very important for the operation of the VRFB. Therefore, the vanadium electrolyte preparation process needs to be continuously optimized to meet the requirements of the VRFB. Table 2.
