One of the major limitations of NA-RFBs is the low solubility of the metal ligands The main difference between aqueous and NA-RFBs is in the electrolyte solvent and in organic electrolytes. Furthermore, the voltage losses due to ohmic effects are more supporting ions. In NA-RFBs, organic solvents, such as acetonitrile (ACN) [166,172–180], significant than in VRFBs because the conductivity of the non-aqueous organic solvent- propylene carbonate (PC) [173,177,181–183], and ethylene carbonate (EC) [181,182,184], based electrolyte is twice that of the aqueous acidic medium [167,170]. To overcome are used to dissolve metal–ligand complexes as reactive species. To improve conductivity, these limitations, all-organic redox flow batteries (A-ORFBs) have been proposed to bring an ionic liquid is added as a supporting electrolyte such as tetraethylammonium tetra- together the advantages of using a non-aqueous electrolyte and electroactive organic com- fluoroborate (TEABF4) due to its compatibility with organic solvents [83]. pounds [184].
