Description
Opportunity:
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract no. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to enter into a collaboration to further develop and commercialize its DIW 3D printed porous electrode material for hybrid flow battery systems.
Background:
Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind produce electricity intermittently. To ensure a reliable grid that can deliver power around the clock, promising technologies like hybrid flow batteries are needed to store the electricity when it is not sunny or windy. At the core of these batteries are liquid electrolytes that typically contain dissolved metals that react to release or store electrons resulting in depositing and stripping of metal at the surface of the electrode. Their behavior depends on whether the battery is charging or discharging. Metal deposition and stripping behavior in these flow energy storage systems are limited due to the capacity of the electrode and flow structural features. The state-of-the-art technologies include planar electrodes or foam/felt electrodes, which all have limitations. Planar electrodes have limited storage capacity due to low surface areas. Foam and felt (typically carbon) electrodes have electrolyte flow and ion transport issues with internal clogging during charging process (metal deposition) as well as uncontrolled bulk part dissolution during discharging (metal stripping). These electrodes also have poor reaction kinetics for metal deposition and stripping. Thus, there is a need for novel porous electrodes that can perform better than currently available electrodes for hybrid flow batteries.
Description:
LLNL researchers have designed and produced, both conductive and non-conductive porous electrode components manufactured for improved metal deposition, discharging, and f...
