2 Vanadium Redox Flow Battery Review Electrochemical Processes within a VRFB In a VRFB oxidation of 𝑉2+ and reduction of 𝑉3+ occurs at the negative electrode: 𝑉3+ +π‘’βˆ’ β‡Œπ‘‰2+ (𝐸0 = βˆ’0.255𝑉𝑣𝑠𝑆𝐻𝐸) (2.1) The oxidation of 𝑉𝑂2+ and reduction of 𝑉𝑂+ occurs at the positive electrode and is also a one 2 electron transfer reaction: 𝑉𝑂+ +2𝐻+ +π‘’βˆ’ β‡Œπ‘‰π‘‚2+ +𝐻 𝑂(𝐸0 = +0.991𝑉𝑣𝑠𝑆𝐻𝐸) (2.2) 22 Many applications will require higher voltages, thus cells are often connected together by bi- polar plates, mechanically in parallel but electronically in series to create stacks with higher voltages. For the redox couples described in Equations 1 and 2, the reversible cell potential, πΈπ‘Ÿπ‘’π‘£ can be found from a modified verison of the Nernst equation. During charging and discharging the state of charge (SOC) of the battery is constantly changing, this influences the reversible cell potential, as the concentration of each vanadium ion depends on the SOC. As two protons participate in the reduction of 𝑉𝑂+, the reversible cell potential is related to the log of the 2 squared proton concentration. Additionally, with the Donnan potential which accounts for differences in the proton concentration across the membrane, between the positive and negative electrolyte [55, 56]: 𝐸 π‘Ÿπ‘’π‘£ + π‘π‘œπ‘ 2 π‘π‘œπ‘  =𝐸0+𝑅𝑇𝑙𝑛(𝐢𝑉𝑂2.𝐢𝑉2+.(𝐢𝐻+ ).𝐢𝐻+ ) 𝑛𝐹 𝐢 2+ .𝐢 3+ .𝐢𝑛𝑒𝑔 𝑉𝑂 𝑉 𝐻+ (2.3) 14
