Extremely Stable Anthraquinone Negolytes Synthesized from Common Precursors
(Elsevier BV, 2020-06)Synthetic cost and long-term stability remain two of the most challenging barriers for the utilization of redox-active organic molecules in redox flow batteries for grid scale energy storage. Starting from potentially ... -
Flow Batteries: Alkaline Benzoquinone Aqueous Flow Battery for Large-Scale Storage of Electrical Energy
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018)We introduce an aqueous flow battery based on low-cost, non-flammable, non-corrosive and Earth-abundant elements. During charging, electrons are stored in a concentrated water solution of 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone ... -
A Phosphonate‐Functionalized Quinone Redox Flow Battery at Near‐Neutral pH with Record Capacity Retention Rate
(Wiley, 2019-02-06)A highly stable phosphonate‐functionalized anthraquinone is introduced as the redox‐active material in a negative potential electrolyte (negolyte) for aqueous redox flow batteries operating at nearly neutral pH. The design ... -
Thermodynamic Analysis of a Compressed Air Energy Storage Facility Exporting Compression Heat to an External Heat Load
(2014)Fluctuations of electric load call for flexible generation technologies such as gas turbines. Alternatively, bulk energy storage (BES) facilities can store excess off-peak electricity to generate valuable peaking electricity. ...
