Abstract
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, a composition for producing a vanadium electrolyte includes a vanadium compound and an ion solution containing vanadium ions and hydrogen ions. In another embodiment, a method for producing a vanadium electrolyte includes obtaining a vanadium compound, and mixing the vanadium compound with an ion solution containing vanadium ions and hydrogen ions.
Claims13
A method for producing a vanadium electrolyte, the method comprising:
- obtaining a vanadium compound;
- and
- mixing the vanadium compound with an ion solution containing vanadium ions and hydrogen ions, wherein the vanadium compound is mixed with the ion solution at ambient temperature.
A method for producing a vanadium electrolyte, the method comprising:
- obtaining a vanadium compound selected from the group consisting of trivalent vanadium (V(III)) compound, tetravalent vanadium (V(IV)) compound, pentavalent vanadium (V(V)) compound, or mixtures thereof;
- and
- mixing the vanadium compound with an acidic vanadium ion solution, wherein the vanadium ion solution is selected from the group consisting of bivalent vanadium (V(II)) ions, trivalent vanadium (V(III)) ions, and pentavalent vanadium (V(V)) ions, or any combinations thereof, wherein the vanadium ion solution includes at least one group of vanadium ions having a different oxidation state than the oxidation state of the vanadium ions produced by dissolving the vanadium compound, and wherein the vanadium compound is mixed with the ion solution at ambient temperature.
