Abstract

As a large scale electrochemical storage device, flow redox battery in which the active materials are flowing electrolytes is different from the common batteries employing solid or gas materials as an electrode. In this paper we introduced flow redox battery in brief, reviewed its development and actual state on (study). The main problem existed in the new device was discussed when viewed with its future developments.

Keywords
