based ZincAir, Inc. ZAI) has obtained exclusive rights from LLNL for the mechanically rechargeable zincair fuel cell (US Patent 5,434,020) invented by John Cooper, a retired LLNL chemist, who is on the ZAI technical Board of Advisors. Refueling is achieved by replacing the spent electrolyte and adding more zinc pellets.
Revolt’s zinc-air technology offers up to three times the energy density on a volumetric basis and twice on a gravimetric basis of lithium-ion, according to the company. In July, ReVolt and BASF entered a joint-development agreement to speed the development and commercialization of ReVolt’s rechargeable zinc-air battery system.
Researchers at Tsinghua University have developed a high-power-density zinc-air fuel cell (ZAFC) stack using an inexpensive manganese dioxide (MnO 2 ) catalyst with potassium hydroxide (KOH) electrolyte. Moreover, zinc has other merits, such as, abundant resources, low cost, low toxicity, easy storage and safe handling.
ReVolt Technology Ltd, a technology company which has developed a rechargeable zinc-air battery ( earlier post ), and BASF have entered a joint-development agreement to speed the development and commercialization of ReVolt’s rechargeable zinc-air battery system. million in ReVolt.
University of Sydney team advances rechargeable zinc-air batteries with bimetallic oxide–graphene hybrid electrocatalyst. Zinc-air batteries are powered by zinc metal and oxygen from the air. They can then be applied to build rechargeable zinc-air batteries.
presence in New York State is a logical next step as we advance towards full commercialization over the next 24 months. With the rechargeable zinc-air flow battery technology, the system can be configured to support a wide range of long-duration applications for microgrids and utilities. market for our technology.
This is the second of three rounds of funding to help members of NY-BEST move promising technologies toward commercialization. Bettergy plans to improve and demonstrate a low-cost zincair-flow battery that could be used for grid storage applications, including storing renewable electricity. million with a total of $2.2
The currently existing MABs use rare and expensive metal catalysts for their air electrodes, such as platinum (Pt). This has hindered its further commercialization into the marketplace. Due to their high theoretical energy density, MABs have been considered a strong cadidate for the next-generation electric vehicles.
In the long-term, the center would help in the development of technologies that would enable a significant increase in energy densities, including lithium-air and zinc-air systems for vehicle applications and advanced batteries for cost efficient and long-life grid power storage applications.
Others solid battery types are nickel-cadmium and sodium-sulphur, while zinc-air is emerging. Another category is flow batteries with liquid electrolyte solutions, including vanadium redox and iron-chromium and zinc-bromine chemistries. Technologies include energy storage with molten salt and liquid air or cryogenic storage.
But there is another way for India to move faster toward its decarbonization goal: by focusing the renewable-energy push in India’s commercial and industrial sectors. India has some 40,000 commercial complexes, which house offices and research centers as well as shopping centers and restaurants.
