Flow batteries have long been considered as a competitive candidate for large-scale energy storage owing to their advantages of high power density, long lifespan, and decoupling of energy density/power. However, high membrane and maintenance costs hinder their further development and application.
However, high membrane and maintenance costs hinder their further development and application. To lower the cost and improve maintainability, membrane-free flow battery systems were developed.
Solution. Membrane-free or membraneless redox flow batteries are a promising class of systems that overcome the drawbacks associated with the use of membranes. They replace the use of the ion-selective membrane with the native liquid–liquid interface of immiscible/biphasic electrolytes.
Taking the widely used all vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) as an example, the system with a 4-h discharge duration has an estimated capital cost of $447 kWh −1, in which the electrolyte and membrane account for 43% and 27% of the total cost, respectively [, , ].
