Abstract

Redox flow batteries (RFBs) are a promising candidate that are capable of meeting the energy storage applications to fulfill the needs of renewable resources. Herein, we prepare an electrochemical device that holds higher energy density. In this work, a reusable glucose kit used as a flow cell which in turn helps to minimize the cost and also balance the pump losses in electrochemical systems. For fabricating RFB, ZnO, from the metal organic framework (Zn-MOF/ZnO), uses an electrode material: ZnCl 2 in aqueous KOH used as both anolyte and catholyte solution. Upon the new cell fabricating in this investigation, we demonstrated the voltage efficiency of 92% at 5 mA cm −2 , which reduces the cost of the cell upon being implemented in the flow battery application.
