Thermally activated retractable EMC protection

An electrolyte flushable battery apparatus comprising:

• a battery casing;
• an electrolyte liquid disposed within the battery casing;
• a salt packet is disposed within the battery casing;
• an inlet flushing valve disposed on a first end of the battery casing;
• and
• an outlet flushing valve disposed on a second end of the battery casing.

A thermal runaway protection system comprising:

• a supply reservoir containing a liquid;
• an electrolyte flushable battery apparatus comprising:
• a battery casing;
• an electrolyte liquid disposed within the battery casing;
• a salt packet is disposed within the battery casing configured to be released into the electrolyte liquid in response to a thermal runaway event;
• an inlet flushing valve disposed on a first end of the battery casing configured to open in response to the thermal runaway event;
• and
• an outlet flushing valve disposed on a second end of the battery casing configured to open in response to the thermal runaway event;
• an outlet reservoir configured to receive the liquid and the electrolyte liquid during flushing;
• an inlet manifold connected to the inlet flushing valve;
• and
• an outlet manifold connected to the outlet flushing valve and the outlet reservoir,
• wherein the liquid is configured to flow through the electrolyte flushable battery apparatus in response to the thermal runaway event in the electrolyte flushable battery apparatus.
