Fig. 6. Potential against time plots for 1-6 and 79-84 charge/discharge cycles at 20 mA cm~? during 15 min charge of the soluble Pb/H2SO, REB. The cell consisted of a Ni foam negative electrode and an RVC positive electrode with 4 mm of inter-electrode gap in 15 mol dm-? Pb(CH3S03)2 + 0.9 mol dm-? CH3SO03H + 1 g dm? Ni(II) + 1 gdm~? Na ligninsulfonate. Mean linear flow rate of electrolyte was 10 cms" 1. Open circuit potential Vo.c, shown in the figure, was 1.86 V [6]. Taken from Hazza et al. [126], copyright Elsevier. Some manufacturers are currently employing polymer-filled expanded graphite board products, however, these materials happen to be very fragile and more expensive than the “conducting plastic” composites [2]. As they tend to be cumbersome to handle in large sizes, some stack developers have preferred to design and manufacture smaller stacks with electrode areas less than 1000 cm? and output power less than 7 kW. Each scalable system integrates energy storage and power management in 175 kW

Fig. 5. RFB potential vs. time for a cell with RVC positive and negative electrodes separated by a 4 mm inter-electrode gap in 1.5 mol dm~? Pb(CH3S03), + 0.9 mol dm~? CH3S03H + 1 g dm? Ni(II) + 1 g dm? Na ligninsulfonate [6,126] (with permission from Elsevier). Mean linear flow rate of 10 cm s~! was employed. Due to the large volumetric surface areas, typically 240— 400 cm? cm~? and 5—70 cm? cm~? for the CF [116] and the RVC foam | 117], respectively, three-dimensional carbon-based materials have been employed in various RFB systems [6]. RVC electrodes have also been employed in ZBB [117] and soluble Pb/H2SO,4 RFBs [16]. The porosity of this material is useful in retaining the solid complex of bromide during charging of a ZBB system [118], while the rough surface of the scraped RVC in the soluble Pb/H2SO,4 RFB allows sticky deposits to be formed within the compressed foam structure | 16].
