and 3d). The seawater battery system needs a solid electrolyte to be very stable in aqueous solution and the NASICON-type solid electrolyte showed good chemical stability throughout 40 cycles in contact with seawater (Figure S4). However, as its long-term stability in water is a concern,[16] further research is planned to evaluate its long-term stability in seawater and effects on electrochemical performance. To investigate sodiation into a hard carbon anode, the hard carbon electrodes were carefully disassembled and washed using diethyl carbonate and then investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM–EDX). Figure 4a shows the high-resolution XPS core level spectra of Na 1 s. After the first charge, the intensity of Na 1 s significantly increases, indicating the Na ion uptake upon charge. Additionally the ex situ SEM-EDX analysis of carbon electrodes before and after the electrochemical sodiation reveals a very homogenous sodium distribution in the carbon layers (Figure 4b). These results demonstrate the possibility of replacing highly reactive metallic sodium by suitably designed high-capacity materials for such seawater batteries. In summary, this study demonstrated the electrochemical mechanism of a novel rechargeable battery using seawater to provide both negative and positive source materials through charging and discharging of the cell. The seawater showed 4.05 V with Cl2 evolution during charge and the discharge potential was 2.9 V with O2 participation into the discharge reaction. Also, we found that sodium ions in flowing seawater reversibly intercalated into the hard carbon in the cell with good cycle performance. Studies of this novel battery are in an early stage and further design and performance improvements are under development. However, we expect it to have global application for stationary energy storage for wind and 8PDF Image | Rechargeable Seawater Battery

Product and Development Focus for Infinity Turbine
ORC Waste Heat Turbine and ORC System Build Plans: All turbine plans are $10,000 each. This allows you to build a system and then consider licensing for production after you have completed and tested a unit.Redox Flow Battery Technology: With the advent of the new USA tax credits for producing and selling batteries ($35/kW) we are focussing on a simple flow battery using shipping containers as the modular electrolyte storage units with tax credits up to $140,000 per system. Our main focus is on the salt battery. This battery can be used for both thermal and electrical storage applications. We call it the Cogeneration Battery or Cogen Battery. One project is converting salt (brine) based water conditioners to simultaneously produce power. In addition, there are many opportunities to extract Lithium from brine (salt lakes, groundwater, and producer water).Salt water or brine are huge sources for lithium. Most of the worlds lithium is acquired from a brine source. It's even in seawater in a low concentration. Brine is also a byproduct of huge powerplants, which can now use that as an electrolyte and a huge flow battery (which allows storage at the source).We welcome any business and equipment inquiries, as well as licensing our turbines for manufacturing.| CONTACT TEL: 608-238-6001 Email: greg@infinityturbine.com | RSS | AMP |
