A Fully Integrated Experimental Platform for Benchmarking New Flow Battery Active Materials

- Type: Conference Presentation
- Conference Type: AIChE Annual Meeting
- Presentation Date: November 11, 2021
- Duration: 15 minutes
- Skill Level: Intermediate
- PDHs: 0.50
This presentation will describe our work to develop a fully integrated, small-volume electrochemical flow platform that measures the thermodynamic, kinetic, and transport properties of RFB electrolytes, spanning inorganic and organic materials as well as soluble and suspended solids. Using a first-generation prototype, we have validated prior work on the sensitivity of the Fe(3+/2+) redox couple to the surface composition of carbon electrodes. We will also discuss ongoing work to further develop the flow platform for studying the redox properties of metal oxide nanomaterials under flow.
